Celtic secured a 2-1 victory over Dundee FC at Dens Park on Sunday, with Kelechi Iheanacho scoring the winner in the 82nd minute. The match began with a quick opener as Benjamin Nygren found the net in the ninth minute. Dundee responded in the 57th minute when Simon Murray converted a penalty to level the score. Iheanacho, introduced in the 58th minute for Tomás Cvancara, made an immediate impact. He received a pass from Marcelo Saracchi, controlled it, and struck the decisive goal with precision. Dundee's efforts to equalize were hampered when Ryan Ashley was shown a red card in the 84th minute. Despite playing with ten men, Dundee held on but could not find a second goal. Celtic maintained their position in second place in the league table, three points behind leaders Hearts.
Iheanacho's late goal came just four minutes after his introduction, proving the value of his sharp finishing instincts. His ability to change the game off the bench gives Celtic a potent weapon in tight matches. For a player often questioned for his consistency, this moment reaffirms his capacity to deliver under pressure.
