      Kilmarnock ended Celtic's league unbeaten run with a dramatic last-minute goal from Matt Kennedy that completed a 2-1 comeback for the Killie at Rugby Park.

      The visitors broke the deadlock in the 33rd minute when Matt O'Riley capitalised from a loose ball from Callum McGregor's effort, securing his ninth league goal of the season.

      In the second half, Kilmarnock exerted significant pressure on Celtic, and they managed to level 15 minutes from time through an own goal by former Liverpool defender Nat Phillips.

      The hosts completed the comeback in the 87th minute when Matt Kennedy scored the winning goal past Joe Hart, 

      This result ends Celtic's unbeaten league run, but despite this setback, Brendan Rodgers's men maintain their position at the top of the Scottish Premier League, holding a five-point lead over rivals Rangers, while Kilmarnock move to fifth place in the table.

      Celtic's unbeaten streak is over! What an amazing performance by Kilmarnock to come back from a goal down and take the win. Congratulations to them and commiserations to Celtic. Still a great season so far for Brendan Rodgers' men though.
