Nancy's Celtic Nightmare Continues with Dundee Utd Loss

At Tannadice, Dundee United beat Celtic 2-1 with two quick second-half goals from Krisztian Keresztes and Zac Sapsford after Daizen Maeda opened the scoring early for the champions.
Celtic's early pressure failed to produce a decisive lead as they missed a series of clear chances, while Jim Goodwin's half-time tactical change brought on Vicko Sevelj and shifted momentum.
Keresztes levelled the match after Celtic failed to clear Will Ferry's high cross, and Zac Sapsford then curled a decisive strike following a corner to complete United's turnaround.
The result piled pressure on Wilfried Nancy as visiting Celtic fans directed anger and chanted for Martin O'Neill during the latter stages; Celtic confirmed Peter Lawwell will step down at year-end amid rising abuse.
The defeat marks a rare extended poor run for Celtic, as Dundee United substitutes, including Shin Yamada on his first appearance since October, fueled their comeback.
