St Mirren 2 Celtic 3 - 29th September 1990

Celtic's turnaround in form continued, albeit in a shaky manner, with this 3-2 victory over St Mirren. Goalless at Half Time, the second half is a pulsating affair with the Buddies taking the lead through Mark McWalter. But Celtic bounce back. Two goals in two minutes put the Hoops 2-1 up - Paul McStay and Gerry Creaney grabbing the goals. But Paul Kinnaird equalises for St Mirren with just 7 minutes remaining. Just as it looks like the points will be shared Gerry Creaney latches onto a ball and fires in the winner.

With Dundee United losing at Tynecastle, Celtic found themselves up to fourth in the league, just two points behind the Tannadice men who hung on to top spot. It was all downhill from here.
