Scott McDonald starred for Motherwell as the Scottish Premiership strugglers stunned Tom Rogic's Celtic 2-1 on Saturday (Sunday morning AEDT).
In a busy day for Australians in Scotland, McDonald inspired Motherwell to a come-from-behind victory against his former club, while Rogic played 74 minutes for the hosts at Celtic Park.
Rogic looked to have set Celtic on their way to a third win in four games when he teed up Nir Bitton for the opening goal in the 49th minute with a smart cut-back.
But just four minutes later, McDonald's impressive hold-up work instigated a Motherwell attack that saw Louis Moult level the match for the visitors.
The 32-year-old Socceroos striker then won a penalty just before the hour mark, with Jozo Simunovic tripping McDonald after the latter's sharp turn in the box, and Moult put Motherwell ahead from the spot.
The win saw Motherwell increase their gap on the relegation zone to four points, while Celtic's lead at the top of the table has been reduced to one by Aberdeen, although Rogic and Co. still have a game in hand.
Dundee United remain bottom but Ryan McGowan helped them to a 2-2 draw at Inverness Caledonian Thistle, with the Socceroos defender playing a full match.

"I knew it was going to be a tough game live on Sky [Sports]," he said.
"I haven't played a competitive game since April, so you know, I knew it was going to be a tough game, and playing against some tricky wingers, I thought I just have to dig in.
"I had to come off with cramp in the end, I just couldn't run anymore to be fair but I'm happy I've managed to get my debut. It's been a long time coming."
