Celtic clinched the Bank of Scotland Premier League title with a dramatic late win over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.

In an enthralling 90 minutes, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink headed the Hoops in to a first-half lead from a Shunsuke Nakamura corner.

However, five minutes after the interval Colin Nish equalised when he slid home a Gary Wales cut-back from 10 yards out.

A pulsating second half ensued and in the first minute of added on time, Nakamura flashed in a trademark free-kick to dramatically win the title.
