Celtic Win Scottish Premiership With Late Comeback Over Hearts

The triumph gives Celtic a record 56th title, moving them past Rangers on the all-time list.

Overview

  • Celtic, which clinched the crown Saturday in Glasgow, needed a win while Hearts required only a draw in a final-day decider.
  • Hearts led through Lawrence Shankland just before halftime, and Arne Engels leveled for Celtic from a handball penalty moments later.
  • Daizen Maeda put Celtic ahead in the 87th minute after a video review overturned an initial offside call.
  • Callum Osmand scored again at 90+8' with the Hearts goalkeeper upfield, and home fans flooded the field to celebrate.
  • The result seals Celtic’s 56th championship and extends Hearts’ 66-year wait, keeping the Old Firm’s run of league winners since 1985 intact.
