Celtic dominated Dundee in a remarkable victory that saw them secure a 13-point lead at the top of the Premiership table. The last meeting between these two teams ended in a goal-fest, but this time Celtic outshined Dundee with an outstanding performance at Parkhead.
Four different players found the back of the net, with Arne Engels, Adam Idah, Daizen Maeda, and Nicolas Kuhn all scoring for Celtic. This impressive win will surely boost the team’s confidence as they prepare for a crucial Champions League showdown against Bayern Munich next week.
Engels opened the scoring with a simple strike after a VAR check awarded Celtic a penalty. Dundee, still reeling from a recent heavy defeat, were left frustrated after Mohamed Sylla’s foul led to the penalty decision being overturned.
As the referee consulted VAR, Dundee manager Tony Docherty’s mood shifted from delight to nerves as he anticipated the penalty being given against his team. Michael Stewart observed Docherty’s changing emotions, noting the bizarre nature of the incident and praising VAR for correcting the on-field referee’s missed call.
