Celtic have got a huge task ahead of them. They need a goal early in the second half.
They've had loads of possession but not enough penetration. But Falkirk have been great. It's going to be an incredible second half.
There will be more goals in this game, for sure.

Falkirk have scored two terrific goals. Tactically they've got it spot on. I think Owen Eames and Ethan Ross are working harder than Haissem Hassan and Callum Osmand, there's no way they're doing as well defensively.
For me, Cameron Carter-Vickers looks like he doesn't relish playing on astroturf, he looks sluggish.
I don't think Celtic have been poor, but it makes it even better that Falkirk are 2-0 up and have been absolutely terrific.

Martin Dowden
BBC Sport Scotland at Falkirk Stadium
Celtic are in deep, deep trouble here. In the Premiership, they have churned out results in the main without looking too convincing.
This score line suggests concerns about how the team has been functioning are more than merited.
Defensively, Celtic are fragile. Cameron Carter-Vickers looks miles off it. One clean sheet in 10 now is so poor.
Going forward, it's not clicking despite having two or three very good chances. Camilo Duran has been a threat.
Falkirk are a very good team. They're more than showing it again.

Celtic fan Martin has already seen enough...
Fine them all a month's wages. Then they might actually care. Not one of those players is showing any sort of fight. They are just waiting on the next paycheck hoping that they can leisurely win the league. And when that doesn't work, they don't even put in the effort to try and change that. Embarrassing. And the board still wonders why every single Celtic fan hates them.

Chris Sutton
Former Celtic striker on Sky Sports
It's not been a great half for Martin O'Neill. I wonder if there'll be changes at half-time.
There'll be questions about how Scott Tanser can run from deep.
And there's the whistle.
What a first-half from Falkirk who are comfortably in front.
Celtic need a big effort if they're going to haul themselves back into this contest.

Celtic work another ball into the Falkirk box, Mika Baur scuffs the shot and then the hosts hoof it clear.

Two minutes of additional time to be played as Kieran Tierney wins his side a free-kick just inside the Falkirk half.

Celtic are struggling to get any real control. They look vulnerable any time Falkirk get possession in the forward areas.
The next five minutes is really important for both teams. A goal for Celtic before half-time would change the whole complexion of the game.

Another cracking save from the former Celtic goalkeeper.

There's nobody picking up Tanser's run. Falkirk are now in a really commanding position.

It's a terrific take and finish from Scott Tanser, it really is.
He breezes past Cameron Carter-Vickers and then can he finish? Boy, can he finish.
Scott Tanser
What a finish!
Scott Tanser drills the ball into the far corner to double the hosts' advantage.

BBC Sport Scotland at Falkirk Stadium
Falkirk haven't looked overly stretched for the most part but Celtic seem to have clicked up top.
Camilo Duran and Haissem Hassan look most likely to produce something with the home side getting pinned in.

Celtic have had chances to get back into this game, no question about it.

Owen Eames leaves one on Haissem Hassan and the Celtic winger is not happy.
There's a wee bit of afters between the pair and both are in the book.

Image source, SNSScott Bain did enough there. The one thing you can't do from there is back off Camilo Duran. He has a lethal shot.
Jubilant Falkirk players celebrate Scott Tanser's goal
Falkirk earned a stunning first victory over an abject Celtic in 19 years to move up to fourth place in the Scottish Premiership.
Ethan Ross' early goal was added to by Scott Tanser's excellent run and finish before the break as John McGlynn's side ruthlessly exposed Celtic's defensive frailties.
Martin O'Neill's league leaders did come close on a number of occasions, with Camilo Duran denied by a post and Falkirk goalkeeper Scott Bain in stunning form throughout.
Defeat leaves Celtic with a record of three wins from their last 10 outings as they failed to extend their four-point advantage lead at the top of the table.
Falkirk struck with their first attack and Celtic played a huge role in the concession. The returning Cameron Carter-Vickers was so lax, diverting the ball straight to Ross, who slammed in from close range.
A response came but it never came to enough. Duran raced in behind and angled a shot off the far post, before Bain produced a wonderful save to deny Haissem Hassan's curling effort on the rebound.
Bain intervened so many times it got slightly ridiculous. His display was top drawer.
Falkirk's second goal arrived in stunning style. Owen Eames played a superb pass to Tanser, who burst through the defence to slot home beautifully. Celtic's defence was ripped wide open.
Celtic rung the changes and had several glaring chances but couldn't breach the home side as Falkirk earned a famous victory that will live long in the memory.
Falkirk came into this off the back of three wins on the trot, something they didn't achieve in the top-flight last season. Now they have four and it's the best of the lot by a distance.
They hadn't beaten Celtic since the March 2007. Their confidence was high and they will be on the ultimate high now.
Their early goal, from their first attack, gave them huge encouragement. The second was outstanding. A brilliant pass, run and finish that tore Celtic apart.
They had fortune at times but Bain was superb with any number of excellent saves. Everything came together for them and this is such milestone moment for them.
There's a simplicity and confidence to their effectiveness, backed up by talented players who know exactly what they are doing.
All credit to McGlynn, his staff and the players. The Falkirk journey just gets better and better and their fans must be absolutely loving it.
In direct contrast, where to start with Celtic?
One clean sheet in 10 games now. Twice in a week they've conceded in the opening minutes and that clearly makes winning so much harder. Defensively, Celtic are so vulnerable it's untrue.
Going forward, Duran is the bright spark and was unlucky not to score but it all looks very disjointed. Celtic had glaring chances but it just wasn't good enough.
Three wins in last 10 now ahead of hosting Besiktas in the Europa League, where they've lost all three so far.
To suggest these are troubled times for Celtic and O'Neill would be quite the understatement.
There's no hiding place after a defeat like this. Scrutiny and questions will intensify with Celtic not providing sufficient answers.
