Hearts 2-1 Celtic: John Souttar header claims win for Robbie Neilson's side
Celtic suffered opening-day defeat for the first time in 24 years - and Ange Postecoglou's chastening start as manager continued - as Hearts made a winning Scottish Premiership return.
It means Postecoglou is still searching for a first win, with a Europa League third qualifying round tie in the Czech Republic against FK Jablonec on Thursday next up, before the visit of Dundee next Sunday. But, less than 10 minutes in, the crisis headlines were already being written after a calamity in the visiting defence.
And, Hearts may well have opened up a two-goal lead before half-time had Craig Halkett or Michael Smith not put efforts from close range over the bar. It lit up what was already a fascinating game, and both sides still believed victory could be theirs. Japanese forward Furuhashi made his entrance from the bench for Celtic, but it was Hearts who were finishing the stronger of the two, and they got their reward when Souttar rose highest at a free-kick to head home for Hearts.
