"Wilfried Nancy made a losing start as Celtic coach, as the Hoops were beaten 2-1 by Hearts at Celtic Park on Sunday. The hosts missed the chance to move to the Scottish Premiership summit at the expense of their opponents, who moved three points clear having played a game more. Celtic made the brighter start of the two teams, but found themselves behind just before half-time, as Claudio Braga drilled the visitors in front."
"Derek McInnes' side arrived at Celtic Park on a four-game winless streak, but doubled their lead in the 64th minute with Oisin McEntee powering home a header from a corner. Celtic pushed to get themselves back into the game, with Reo Hatate striking the woodwork in the closing stages. And the hosts pulled a goal back in the third minute of stoppage time when Kieran Tierney drilled home, but it was too late to avert a third league defeat of the season."
Wilfried Nancy made a losing start as Celtic coach after a 2-1 home defeat to Hearts at Celtic Park. Hearts moved three points clear having played a game more after Claudio Braga's first-half goal and Oisin McEntee's 64th-minute header. Celtic pressured late, saw Reo Hatate strike the woodwork, and Kieran Tierney scored in the third minute of stoppage time, but the comeback arrived too late to prevent a third league defeat of the season. Hearts took maximum points at Celtic Park for only the second time in 28 visits. Daizen Maeda registered 27 goal involvements in 2025, the highest Celtic tally in a calendar year since 2016.
