Celtic 1-1 Hibernian: Depleted hosts denied win by injury-time strike


Thirteen Celtic players missed the game as they self-isolate after being deemed close contacts of Jullien. The hosts led through David Turnbull's free-kick, but are now 21 points behind Scottish Premiership leaders Rangers after Kevin Nisbet's late Hibs strike. Hibs' request for Celtic players to be retested pre-match was turned down and Jack Ross gave a first appearance to on-loan Arsenal goalkeeper Matt Macey. For long spells in the second half, the hosts did not look likely to win but took their chance when it came. Celtic will still be without their isolating players when they host Livingston on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
