Celtic win Scottish Premiership for 53rd time

By Can Erozden

ANKARA (AA) – Celtic on Sunday won the 2023 Scottish Premiership title with four matches to spare.

The Glasgow club beat Hearts 2-0 with second half goals scored by Kyogo Furuhashi and Oh Hyeon-gyu to be the back-to-back Scottish champions, and Celtic won it for the 53rd time in history.

Hearts were down to 10 men after Alex Cochrane was shown a red card in the 45th minute.

Winners Celtic have 95 points in 34 matches to go 13 points clear of Rangers.

Celtic's archrivals Rangers are the record holders, winning 55 Scottish titles.

In the next fixture, Celtic will visit Rangers at Ibrox Stadium on May 13, but next weekend's derby will be irrelevant for this season's Scottish champions.
