Alloa Athletic vs Celtic LIVE score
A combination of missed chances and Alloa's dogged pressing meant Ange Postecoglou's men had an uncomfortable evening at Alloa.
Things got off to a great start for the Hoops as Liam Scales delivered a lovely, weighted cross for Giorgios Giakoumakis to turn home.
Celtic continued to dominate possession and looked as if they had killed the game before half-time. Liel Abade cut in from the right flank and curled an effort which left David Hutton helpless.
Postecoglou's men had a string of opportunities in the second half. Daizen Maeda could've had a couple of goals.
Alloa's frustration was evidently growing but they continued to press Celtic like a pack of dogs.
And Barry Ferguson's men were rewarded near the end as Connor Sammon rose high to power The Wasps back into the game.
Alloa went all out for the last few minutes but Celtic employed a keep-ball strategy to ensure they secured their place in the hat for the next round.
