Giorgos Giakoumakis’ dramatic late strike completed his hat-trick and gave Celtic a 3-2 win over Dundee which stretched their lead at the top of the Premiership to three points. Defender Carl Starfelt’s volley from Jota’s cross was blocked by a Dundee jersey and Giakoumakis’ shot on the spin from 14 yards gave Dundee keeper Ian Lawlor no chance. But in a tension-filled finale, the Greece forward fired in a winner in the 86th minute to fully capitalize on Rangers’ 1-1 draw against Dundee United earlier in the day. Rangers were brought back down to earth following their midweek heroics against Borussia Dortmund as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Dundee United at Tannadice on Sunday. Dundee United’s Ross Graham (centre) runs away after putting his side ahead in the first half at Tannadice Park.
