Celtic Falkirk Premier Sports Cup

Celtic hit back to beat Falkirk

Adam Idah and Nicolas Kuhn net late doubles

Celtic are through to the semi-finals of the Premier Sports Cup after being given a major scare by John McGlynn's Falkirk at Parkhead.

The Bairns were twice in front but four goals in the last 20 minutes saw Celtic clinch a last-four place as they continued their strong start to the season.

Ross MacIver's opener was cancelled out by Paulo Bernardo but Finn Yeats restored the Championship side's advantage in first-half stoppage time.

Doubles from Adam Idah and Nicolas Kuhn turned things round for Brendan Rodgers' men and Falkirk also had Michael McKenna sent off in the last minute of the match.
