"Celtic's fightback from two goals down at Rugby Park was capped by a winner from Julian Araujo, the third time in a week the defending champions have snatched a vital strike at the death. Rangers twice found themselves trailing to league leaders Hearts at Ibrox but Youssef Chermiti's hat-trick helped Danny Rohl's side to a thumping 4-2 victory And Motherwell stretched their unbeaten run to eight games with a 2-0 win over Aberdeen that keeps them in contention."
"One quirk of Sunday's action was that none of the goalscorers from the top four were at their clubs last season, when Celtic were already cruising towards the title. Sebastian Tounekti netted for the third time at Rugby Park this season, Benjamin Nygren scored his 16th goal for Celtic since moving in the summer and it was January arrival Araujo who clinched three points. At Ibrox, the scoring was opened by Marc Leonard, who only joined Hearts four weeks ago,"
The Scottish Premiership title race tightened after dramatic Sunday fixtures featuring late winners and high-scoring encounters. Celtic recovered from two goals down at Rugby Park, Julian Araujo scoring a last-minute winner. Rangers overcame a two-goal deficit to Hearts at Ibrox, Youssef Chermiti completing a hat-trick in a 4-2 victory. Motherwell extended an eight-game unbeaten run with a 2-0 win over Aberdeen. Hearts lead on 57 points, Rangers sit on 55 and Celtic on 54 with a game in hand. Several goalscorers were recent arrivals, including Benjamin Nygren, Sebastian Tounekti and Marc Leonard.
