Chris Sutton reacts to Celtic defeat on Twitter

Celtic suffered their first defeat of the 2018-19 season after they lost 1-0 away at Hearts of Midlothian in the Scottish Premiership clash on Saturday.

Kyle Lafferty scored in the second half for Hearts and they kept the scoreline intact to earn a crucial win against the Scottish champions at Tynecastle.

The Jambos striker returned to Craig Levein’s starting line-up after being benched in the past two games, and he did make a huge impact.

Glasgow Rangers were heavily interested in signing Lafferty in the summer, but Hearts’ decision to reject the Gers’ £200,000 offer already looks like a wise one.
