Nobody is catching domestic machine Celtic now
Celtic’s lead looks insurmountable after they grind out a victory over a dogged Aberdeen at rain-lashed Pittdorie to go seven points clear, writes Tom English.

The game itself was a grueling affair, played in torrential rain that turned the pitch into a mud bath. The conditions made it difficult for both sides to play their usual fluent football, leading to a scrappy and often ill-tempered encounter. Aberdeen, battling hard to keep their title hopes alive (albeit fading fast), defended resolutely and made life extremely difficult for Celtic. Their organization and work rate were admirable, frustrating Celtic’s attempts to dominate possession and create clear-cut chances.
Celtic, however, showed their class in their ability to grind out a result even when not at their best. Their experience and composure shone through in the face of Aberdeen’s determined resistance. They displayed a maturity and pragmatism that has been a hallmark of their success this season. While the lack of free-flowing football might have disappointed some, the three points were all that mattered. The win underlined the difference between a team chasing a title and a team fighting to stay in contention.
