Shocker for Celtic – Champions pay the penalty in Dingwall as Ross County lead at the break --[Reported by Umva mag]

Celtic are a goal down at the interval in Dingwall in the Scottish Premiership early kick-off against Ross County after conceding a penalty just before the break…

The Scottish Champions had the vast majority of possession but lacked a cutting edge while the home side were happy to sit in and prove that there’s always a chance to park the bus and get something at the other end.

That happened after a VAR intervention on a Liam Scales handball correctly identified a handball. Kasper Schmeichel, who needed a clean sheet to break a club record in going seven league matches at the start of the season without conceding, saved well but had moved off his line.

A retake was the correct decision and this time young Irish striker Ronan Hale hammered the retake low and hard into the same corner to give Ross County a shock lead. Hale is of course a Celtic supporter but his goal is currently causing major concern for the Hoops.

Celtic supporters will be looking for a vastly improved second half showing.

DRAMA in the Highlands as Ross County lead over Celtic!
