Celtic showcased champion mentality securing a dramatic win over Hibernian with a 92nd-minute penalty from on loan striker Adam Idah. Despite Dylan Levitt’s spectacular equalizer, Idah’s penalty double including the late winner restored Celtic’s three point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

The victory marked manager Brendan Rodgers’ first win at Easter Road and extended Celtic’s lead over Rangers. While Rodgers acknowledged the need for improvement the result highlighted Celtic’s ability to grind out wins in challenging moments. The winless streak continues for Hibernian placing them in seventh position.
