Celtic had over 30 shots in the game, but could only test the Alloa ‘keeper Neil Parry on several occasions and were very wasteful in front of goal.

Tom Rogic, Dembele and Forrest all had opportunities from good positions to at least test Parry, but couldn’t even hit the target.

Kieran Tierney came the closest to scoring in the opening 45 minutes after volleying the ball from the corner of the box off the crossbar.

One performance under the spotlight for Celtic was Craig Gordon’s, and the ‘keeper was lucky to stay on the field after a woeful Kung Fu style challenge outside the box.

Rogic, Scott Brown and half-time substitute Scott Sinclair all had great chances in the second-half but couldn’t hit the back of the net.

Forrest had a good effort on goal saved on 80 minutes, but two minutes later the winger broke down the wing again and ran across the edge of the area before firing the ball into the bottom corner.

Dembele scored his eighth of the season on 89 minutes to confirm Celtic’s place in tomorrow’s draw with a good solo run and a thumping effort into the top right corner.

Here are the player ratings from tonight’s game.
