Celtic have restored their nine-point lead over Rangers ahead of next week's Old Firm showdown.
But they needed a hotly disputed penalty decision an and a wonderful injury time strike from Alexandro Bernabei to see off Ross County who had stubbornly defended so well in what was not a pretty watch.
The key moment came in first half injury time. VAR Steven Kirkland asked ref Willie Collum to watch a review after a ball into the box grazed Alex Iacovitti on the left arm as he has Cameron Carter-Vickers challenged for the ball in the air. Jota stuck away the penalty.
