William Hill Premiership

Celtic and Aberdeen secure late wins

Round-up of Sunday's SPFL matches

Celtic remain top of the William Hill Premiership on goal difference after coming from behind to beat Ross County 2-1 in the lunchtime game in Dingwall.

Ronan Hale's retaken penalty gave County the lead before half-time but Alistair Johnston equalised and Nicolas Kuhn struck the winner with just two minutes left.

Aberdeen also made it seven league wins from seven with a dramatic 3-2 victory against bottom club Heart of Midlothian at a sold-out Pittodrie.

Topi Keskinen opened the scoring inside two minutes but Frankie Kent and Blair Spittal had Hearts in front just past the hour mark.

Nicky Devlin quickly equalised and Ante Palaversa was the hero when he found the net in 88 minutes as the Dons took advantage of a red card for Jorge Grant with 15 minutes remaining. 

In the evening kick-off at Ibrox Rangers - who had Ianis Hagi sent off late in the game - saw off St Johnstone 2-0 thanks to a Vaclav Cerny double.
