Iheanacho's Goal Leads Celtic to 2-1 Win Over Hibernian

In a crucial SPFL match on Sunday, Kelechi Iheanacho's goal secured a 2-1 victory for Celtic against 10-man Hibernian, allowing the defending champions to level points with Hearts, who lead on goal difference. Celtic now sits four points clear of Rangers.

The match was marked by Hibernian's Jamie McGrath receiving a red card in the 21st minute after a VAR review for a foul on Alistair Johnston. Celtic capitalized on their man advantage, with Daizen Maeda scoring from a cross by Yang Hyun-jun, although the goal was initially flagged offside before being overturned by VAR.

Hibernian equalized just before halftime through captain Joe Newell, whose goal was allowed despite appearing to come off his hand. In the second half, Iheanacho, a former Manchester City and Leicester forward, scored the decisive goal in the 78th minute, chesting down a corner from Kieran Tierney and slotting it into the bottom corner.
