| Justice done at Celtic Park
It is difficult to recall the visitors creating a clear-cut chance."I thought we played really well and to make that number of chances was more than I could expect," said Celtic manager Gordon Strachan. "Artur Boruc could have been sitting with me."He was forced to reshuffle his side early when both Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Andreas Hinkel retired hurt. In the former's case it was because of a gaping head wound including a burst blood vessel received in an accidental clash with Kilmarnock centre-back Simon Ford's "head of steel", as his manager Jim Jefferies termed it. The Dutchman had five stitches inserted and was refused permission to return by the club doctor because of the worrying amount of blood he had lost. The German right-back came off with a thigh strain but had been suffering from the ubiquitous winter sickness virus.With Derek Riordan on for Hinkel, Paul Hartley showed his versatility by switching to right back from left midfield, while Chris Killen replaced Vennegoor of Hesselink up front.

ID for body parts found 15 years ago
DNA technology has been used to identify the remains of a man whose body parts were found at three different sites in Sydney 15 years ago. A truck driver found the torso of the man identified today as father-of-three Wayne Robert Chant, 47, in 1992, in Sydney's south. His legs and left arm were found days later at two other sites across southern Sydney but the man's hands, right arm and head have never been found. NSW Police homicide squad commander Geoff Beresford said advances in DNA techniques had finally confirmed the man's identity. A targeted homicide investigation could now get underway, he said in a statement. "As a result of innovations in DNA technology, the remains have recently been identified through comparison with a sample supplied by Mr Chant's late mother," Det Supt Beresford said.
