Celtic faced additional setbacks at Tynecastle as the fast-track tribunal upheld Hyun-Jun Yang’s red card making him unavailable for the Scottish Cup tie against Livingston and the subsequent league game against St Johnstone. Despite recent victories, Brendan Rodgers’ team faltered against Hearts missing an opportunity to build on their positive momentum.

Despite maintaining their position in the title race, Celtic felt the impact of Callum McGregor’s absence due to an Achilles injury currently under assessment. Brendan Rodgers is optimistic about positive updates on McGregor acknowledging his crucial experience for future challenges. Despite potential hurdles, Celtic is determined to advance beyond Livingston in the Scottish Cup.
