Celtic Crowned Scottish Champions After 5-0 Rout of Dundee United
Celtic have officially clinched the Scottish Premiership title following a resounding 5-0 away win against Dundee United in Matchweek 34.
The scoring opened in unusual fashion as United’s Ryan Strain turned the ball into his own net on the half-hour mark. From there, it was all Celtic. Nicolas Kühn doubled the lead and added another in first-half stoppage time to make it 3-0 by the break. In the second half, Daniel Auda netted twice to complete the demolition.
This dominant display secured Celtic’s 55th league title, bringing them level with arch-rivals Rangers in total championships won—a significant milestone in one of football’s fiercest rivalries.
Remarkably, Celtic have now won 13 of the last 14 league titles, underlining their era of dominance in Scottish football.
