The 2-2 draw kept the Dons level on points with the champions at the top of the William Hill Premiership
Aberdeen came from two goals down at Celtic Park to maintain their unbeaten start to the season with a thrilling draw.
There were disallowed goals at both ends as the top-of-the-table clash more than lived up to the hype. The Swede went with an unchanged team and set-up and his side showed attacking intent early on with three attack-minded midfielders supporting Kevin Nisbet. The same pair were involved as Celtic doubled their lead. Gavin Molloy set up Hatate with a terrible clearance before blocking the midfielder’s shot, but Furuhashi despatched the loose ball.
Thelin brought on Duk and Sokler at half-time and his side dragged themselves back into the game with some aggressive pressing, although Kuhn missed another good chance to put Celtic three up. However, Aberdeen were soon level after Daizen Maeda’s misplaced pass gave them possession deep in the Celtic half. They ultimately worked the ball to Shinnie whose shot took a major deflection and flew into the roof of the net.
