Celtic vs Hearts title decider abandoned after pitch invasion – SPFL

The SPFL has confirmed that Celtic’s title-winning victory over Hearts on Saturday was not brought to a premature conclusion, while a pitch invasion was condemned after the last action of an exciting and chaotic afternoon.

Fans walked out of the stands at Celtic Park after Callum Osmond scored 3–1 on 98 minutes.

The game did not restart, with eight minutes of stoppage time declared at the end of the regulation 90 minutes.

Hearts started the day ahead by one point and took the lead through a Lawrence Shankland header.

Celtic equalised with an Arne Engels penalty on the stroke of half-time, while Daizen Maeda put the defending champions ahead on 87 minutes.

Hearts, who were in their first title hunt since 1960, decided to make a hasty exit from the stadium, citing a “dangerous and threatening atmosphere.”
