Scotland: Hooper, Wanyama score, boost Celtic

GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) -- Celtic, behind goals from Gary Hooper and Victor Wanyama, defeated last-place Dundee to revive its title defense in the Scottish Premier League.

After Robert Douglas saved Scott Brown's penalty kick in the 38th minute, the former Celtic goalkeeper was beaten just before the half by Hooper. Wanyama scored four minutes into the second half.

Celtic is in third place, a point behind leader Motherwell, which is at Aberdeen on Sunday, and Hibernian, which was held to a 2-2 draw by Inverness.
