Celtic fans on Twitter were calling for Brendan Rodgers to be sacked after the Bhoys conceded a late goal to lose to Kilmarnock 2-1 on Sunday.

Striker Leigh Griffiths put the Hoops ahead on Killie’s plastic pitch just after the half hour mark after taking advantage of Greg Taylor’s poor clearance.

However, the current Premiership champions couldn’t stretch their lead and the home side’s right winger Chris Burke punished them in the second-half with a thunderous long-range strike past Scotland’s number one Craig Gordon.

Celtic, who completed their famous double treble under Rodgers last season, could not find another goal as much as they pressed, as has been common for the Bhoys this season. Then in the third minute of stoppage time Stuart Findlay glanced a header past Gordon to snatch all three points and pile the pressure on the Celtic boss.
