Celtic Defeats Hearts 3-0 in Premiership Clash

Celtic secured a decisive 3-0 victory over Hearts at Parkhead, with Daizen Maeda scoring twice and Jota adding another goal. The match showcased Celtic's clinical finishing, as they capitalized on defensive lapses by Hearts, particularly during a dominant first half. Hearts' coach Neil Critchley acknowledged the team's initial aggression but pointed out the risks of their open play, which ultimately led to Celtic's goals. Despite creating some chances, Hearts were unable to find the back of the net, and the second half lacked significant action as both teams settled into a rhythm. The defeat leaves Hearts in sixth place and looking ahead to crucial upcoming fixtures that will determine their standing in the league. Celtic, bolstered by Maeda's scoring streak, aims to build on this momentum in future matches.
