Dundee United produced a commanding 2–0 victory over Celtic in the Scottish Premiership on 22 March 2026, a result that will send shockwaves through the title race and underline the hosts' growing threat at Tannadice. United were well-organised from the first whistle, sitting compact and frustrating a Celtic side that struggled to find rhythm or penetrate in behind a resolute back line.
The turning point arrived six minutes into the second half when Will Ferry found the net on 51 minutes, capitalising on a moment of hesitation in the Celtic defence to slot home and give the home side a deserved lead. Rather than pressing forward in search of an equaliser, the visitors looked unsettled, and United punished them again when Emmanuel Agyei doubled the advantage on 66 minutes, finishing with composure after a slick counter-attacking move that exposed Celtic's high defensive line.
Celtic pushed late but lacked the clinical edge to threaten a comeback, and United's defensive shape held firm through to full time. For the hosts, it is a result that demonstrates real Premiership quality and the ability to grind out clean sheets against the very best. For Celtic, questions will be asked about their attacking output and resilience when things go against them on the road.
