Glasgow, Scotland – Celtic took over the top spot in the 0 win over Rangers at Parkhead.
Joe Ledley's goal early in the second half was enough to propel the Hoops to a one-point lead on their Old Firm rivals, with Celtic winning its ninth straight game in league play.
Rangers nearly took an early lead when Sone Aluko's cross was met at the back post by Lee Wallace, who appeared to head the ball over the goal line before Celtic goalkeeper Fraser Forster pushed the ball off the post. However the goal was not given by the referee and Celtic found its way back into the game.
The home side came out strong in the second half and Ledley put his team in front from Charlie Mulgrew's corner kick as he rose up to head the ball into the upper corner of the net in traffic.
There was still over 35 minutes to play following the goal, but Celtic did well to see off the match with Forster never seriously tested down the stretch.
