Celtic Win 4-2 at Livingston as Nancy Secures First Back-to-Back Victories

Nancy says Celtic must curb the chaos after a win that leaves them three points off Hearts with a game in hand.

Overview

  • All six goals arrived before the break, with Benjamin Nygren scoring twice and Hyun‑Jun Yang and Arne Engels on target after Cristian Montano’s early brace for Livingston.
  • The fourth goal came from a VAR-awarded penalty that Engels converted, with BBC Sportscene’s Leanne Crichton noting it looked like Daizen Maeda nudged Daniel Finlayson before the handball.
  • Nancy praised his players’ fight but said the team needs better control, describing the contest as chaotic in spells and urging a reduction in risky moments.
  • Celtic’s attack has clicked under Nancy but defensive leaks persist, with 13 goals conceded in his first six games compared with 10 scored.
  • The win gives Nancy consecutive victories for the first time since his appointment, and he was seen joining the players to applaud supporters after full time.
