Celtic batter Dundee to move closer to the top

Tom Rogic, Scott Sinclair - from the penalty spot - James Forrest and Odsonne Edouard gave the ruthless visitors a 4-0 half-time lead.

Ryan Christie neatly slotted a fifth early in the second period.

Dundee have now lost all three games since Jim McIntyre became manager with an aggregate score of 12-0.

They have only one win from 11 league outings but are still just a solitary point behind second-bottom St Mirren, who were beaten in Paisley by Motherwell on Wednesday.

Brendan Rodgers, in pursuit of a third straight domestic treble, oversaw his 100th competitive victory as Celtic boss.
