03/22/2009 - Dundee, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Celtic failed to take hold of the Scottish Premier League as the Hoops needed an 80th-minute goal from Lee Naylor to salvage a 2-2 draw with Dundee United at Tannadice Park on Sunday.
Celtic could have gone five points clear of second-placed Rangers with a win after Walter Smith's men were held to a 2-2 draw by Hearts on Saturday, but after Scott McDonald's opener in the 24th minute, Francisco Sandaza tallied twice for United before Naylor grabbed the equalizer with 10 minutes to play.
Aiden McGeady threatened early in the match for Celtic, but the Hoops went in front after 24 minutes from a corner kick.
Paul Hartley's cross was deflected towards his own goal by United's Garry Kenneth, forcing goalkeeper Lukasz Zaluska to parry the ball into the air. McDonald took advantage as he was on hand to head home from close range for his 13th league goal of the campaign.
United's Morgaro Gomis needed to clear the ball off the goal line from Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink's header to keep his side within a goal at the break, but they came out strong after the restart and leveled the match in the 47th minute.
Paul Dixon's corner kick was driven to the near post for Sandaza, and he flicked it high into the net past a number of Celtic players, while the second goal was just 10 minutes away.
Dixon once again played provider as he was sent down the right wing by James Wesolowski and crossed for the Spaniard to slot home.
Celtic heaped the pressure on over the last 20 minutes with McDonald forcing a good save from Zaluska, but he was unable to keep out a fantastic volley from Naylor after a poor clearance by Kenneth, helping Celtic take a point back to Glasgow.

“You play to win the game!”
Those are the words of notoriously intense head coach Herman Edwards. Unfortunately, from a bettors’ perspective, most coaches don’t feel that way about the NFL preseason. August is a time to evaluate young players, finalize the depth chart and pray your star players stay healthy.
The trick to making money during the exhibition schedule is identifying coaches – like Edwards – who can’t stand losing even when there's nothing on the line.
The New York Jets betting won 15 of 21 preseason games and went 14-7 against the spread (ATS) during Edwards’s five-year tenure with the club. In his first season as the Kansas City Chiefs field boss, the team improved from 0-4 to 2-2.
Identifying win-a-holics like Edwards is a good start if you plan betting the preseason – even though most say you shouldn’t ... but what the hell do they know anyway?
Here’s a brief rundown of two teams that have a habit of winning during the second-stringers’ season, and another club that has a good chance of exceeding this year.
Playing in the media hub of North America can be stressful but the press can’t write anything negative about the way Tom Coughlin’s boys play in the preseason. The Giants won and covered all four games last summer, improving their record to 7-1 both straight up (SU) and against the spread over the last two years.
Coughlin has shown he’s not afraid to give his starters more time in the second preseason game than most of his colleagues, no doubt one of the reasons his team has been so dominant.
Bettors can count on America’s team early on. The Cowboys are 14-6 both SU and ATS since 2002 in warm-up contests. Former coach Bill Parcells, the coach of the team the last four years, has an intimidating, in-your-face presence – surely a reason Dallas has had so much early success.
The Big Tuna won’t be strolling the sidelines with looks of disgust, but new coach Wade Phillips will be anxious to make a good first impression for owner Jerry Jones.
Dallas plays the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos before things get serious. They then face the Houston Texans in their third contest (the game starters see most game time) and finish off with the Minnesota Vikings.
Expect a Dallas team able to walk away with another 3-1 preseason record.
This team scored a league-worst 12 offensive touchdowns last season, so the rookies and veterans each have something to prove. There’s a bounty of first-unit jobs up for grabs and plenty of bodies competing for those slots.
First-time head coach Lane Kiffin will be eager to impress an owner who employs the philosophy, “Just win, baby!”
The 32-year-old Kiffin has to command respect from a locker room full of players older than him. All of these factors should lead to purpose in preseason.
Don’t forget: before playing like a team that belonged in NFL Europe, Oakland went 4-1 (both SU and ATS) in exhibition games.
