Celtic boss Strachan defends Nakamura

Celtic boss Gordon Strachan defended Shunsuke Nakamura after their victory over Kilmarnock. Nakamura was accused of "going down too easily" by Killie boss Alan Combe for one of two penalties won by Celtic on the day.

But Strachan said: "We had some good performances and I think Nakamura was phenomenal again.

"If anybody was watching on the telly to tell their kids how to play football, that's the way to play football.

"But I would be unhappy if I thought Nakamura was taking a penalty against me."
