Celtic were left frustrated against Aberdeen on Sunday.

And some Hoops supporters weren’t happy with centre-back Shane Duffy at Pittodrie.

Neil Lennon’s side looked to be on course for a first win in three after Leigh Griffiths’ brilliant finish and a Ryan Christie spot-kick put Celtic 3-2 up late on.

However, a second Lewis Ferguson penalty in stoppage time ensured the points were shared.

Ryan Hedges’ second-half strike put the hosts 2-1 up shortly after the hour mark.

Duffy, who was brought in on a season-long loan from Brighton & Hove Albion over the summer, was at fault for the goal after being dispossessed in a dangerous area.

He made his 10th Hoops appearance on Sunday, and these fans were quick to hit out at the Irishman on social media following The Dons’ second of the afternoon.

The result leaves Celtic three points behind rivals Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership, however, that lead could be extended if Steven Gerrard’s side defeats Livingston on Sunday afternoon.
