Celtic had to come from behind to take a win against Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the Scottish Premier League this lunchtime.

The home side had the brighter of the starts. Billy McKay had the first chance of the game, but it was Nick Ross who put Inverness ahead in the ninth minute with a strike from the edge of the penalty area.

The visitors drew level 11 minutes later, Kris Commons finding the top corner of the goal from just inside the box.

Andrew Shinnie and Aaron Doran continued to build pressure against Celtic, but Caley were unable to regain their lead before the break.

The Scottish champions were on the attack early in the second half, forcing a corner inside the opening two minutes.

Dylan McGeouch delivered the ball in to the penalty area, with Rami Gershon rising high to head to ball past Ryan Esson.

The home side fought hard as they tried to level the scores, Philip Roberts and Doran both forcing saves from Fraser Forster.

However, Nicolas Fedor Miku blasted the ball in from close range to seal the win inside the last 10 minutes.

The win extends Celtic's lead at the top of the SPL table to 18 points.
