Celtic moved level with Hearts at the top of the Scottish Premiership after a victory against Hibernian. The interim manager, Martin O'Neill, saw his side take advantage of an early dismissal for the Edinburgh club. Hibernian played the majority of the match with 10 players following a red card in the first half, according to Sky Sports. The result places Celtic on equal points with current leaders Hearts as the title race enters its final stages.
O'Neill noted that there remains little margin for error despite the win. The victory increases pressure on rival teams ahead of their upcoming fixtures. According to The Guardian, the result marks a significant shift in the standings as Celtic seek to secure the championship. Rangers are scheduled to play later this weekend, a fixture that could impact the gap at the top of the table. Celtic now await results from other venues to determine their standing going into the next round of matches, per ESPN.
