Celtic suave under pressure, sealing a 2-0 victory against Hearts! Find out how new signings Arne Engels and Luke McCowan stole the show!

In an electrifying encounter at Celtic Park, Celtic FC extended their winning streak to five games with a convincing 2-0 victory over Hearts. The Scottish champions showcased their prowess, dominating the match throughout. Arne Engels, the new signing who joined just before the transfer window closed, made an immediate impact by scoring the opener from the penalty spot shortly after halftime, bringing the home crowd to their feet. This set the tone for an exciting second half, as Celtic demonstrated why they are the team to beat this season.

Luke McCowan, another fresh face in the Celtic squad, followed suit shortly afterward by netting his first goal for the club, effectively sealing the match for the Hoops. Hearts displayed commendable resilience, managing to keep the scoreline modest despite the pressure from Celtic's relentless attack. However, referee Colin Steven's controversial decisions regarding penalties added a layer of intensity to the match, sparking heated discussions among players and fans alike. Hearts, frustrated with the decisions made during the game, voiced their concerns about a handball incident and the validity of their own denied penalty.

The match effectively showcased the potential of Celtic's new recruits and their ability to seamlessly integrate into the team. Fans were particularly excited about the talent and determination shown by Engels and McCowan, both of whom are expected to play vital roles in the campaign ahead. Brendan Rodgers's tactical acumen was clear, as he crafted a strategy that put Celtic in control, while managing to thwart Hearts' efforts to equalize. The team is yet to concede a goal in the league, highlighting their defensive solidity and teamwork.

As Celtic continues their impressive run, they are making a strong case for being the team to watch this season. With their perfect start, the Hoops are not just about attacking flair but also reflect a well-rounded approach to the game. Fun fact: This victory marks the third consecutive season in which Celtics have not dropped a point against Hearts at home! Furthermore, Arne Engels’s penalty not only gave him personal glory but also solidified his name in Celtic history as the latest recruit ready to take on the challenges of the Scottish Premiership!
