Celtic wins 56th Scottish league title after late comeback against Hearts

Celtic secured their 56th Scottish league title with a 3-1 victory over Hearts at Celtic Park on the final matchday of the season. Hearts initially took the lead in the 43rd minute through a Lawrence Shankland header following a Kingsley corner. Celtic equalized shortly before halftime with a penalty scored by Engels, awarded after a foul by Alexandros Kyziridis. Following a tense second half, Daizen Maeda scored the decisive go-ahead goal for Celtic in the 88th minute. Osman added a final goal in the eighth minute of stoppage time to seal the 3-1 result. This victory allowed Celtic to surpass Rangers in the total number of league titles. The outcome also impacted AEK Athens, as a Hearts win would have benefited the Greek team in Champions League qualification seeding.
