Leaders Hearts leave it late to take a point against 10-man Celtic


Scottish Premiership: Hearts 2 Celtic 2Claudio Braga scored a late equaliser as Scottish Premiership leaders Hearts drew 2-2 at home to 10-man Celtic to maintain their six-point advantage over the champions. In a match the Hoops could not afford to lose, they led twice through goals from Benjamin Nygren and Yang Hyun-jun. But they were pegged back by a Stuart Findlay header and then Braga’s strike, which came after Celtic defender Auston Trusty was sent off in the 77th minute. Gordon, 43, incidentally played for Hearts the previous time O’Neill took charge of the Hoops at Tynecastle almost 21 years ago. Hearts made the extra man count in the 87th minute when Braga thumped home from eight yards after substitute Oisin McEntee had headed Harry Milne’s free-kick down to him.
