Levein keeps emotions in check

Shortly after Paul Hartley had given the visitors the lead on 51 minutes with a deflected shot from inside the box, Richmond waved play on when United striker Roy O’Donovan appeared to be tripped by defender Gary Caldwell inside the box.

Richmond then injured himself running into Celtic midfielder Shunsuke Nakamura and had to be replaced by fourth official Iain Brines – before substitute Francisco Sandaza nipped in at the near post to flick a Craig Conway cross past Bhoys goalkeeper Artur Boruc and secure a draw in this Clydesdale Bank Premier League match.
