Celtic returned to their best to sweep Aberdeen aside 5-0 on the final day of the season before lifting the Premiership trophy.
Ange Postecoglou’s side had failed to win in three games since clinching the title, but Kyogo Furuhashi’s first-half double sent them on their way to victory.
He then limped off with Celtic fans facing a nervous wait for an injury update ahead of the Scottish Cup final next weekend.
Carl Starfelt headed in to make it 3-0 before a Hyeon-Gyu Oh double completed an impressive trophy-day display by the hosts.
Aberdeen had already guaranteed a third-placed finish but they failed to create a single effort on target on a tough afternoon in the east end of Glasgow.

There was an incredible atmosphere and fan display as champions Celtic made their way out onto the pitch for their final home game of the season against Aberdeen
After collecting one point from the three games since clinching the title, Postecoglou had picked 11 players that have a good chance of starting next Saturday’s final against Inverness, barring injury and the possible return of the suspended Daizen Maeda.
Celtic returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion as Starfelt notched his first goal at Parkhead and substitute Oh grabbed a double before the team collected the Premiership trophy.
The champions emerged to a guard of honour from Aberdeen, who clinched third place and a European spot in midweek and will be guaranteed group-stage football if Celtic win the cup.

Kyogo Furuhashi puts champions Celtic ahead against Aberdeen to get the final day celebrations under way
Postecoglou, who was named Scottish Football Writers’ manager of the year earlier in the day, will join Jock Stein, Martin O’Neill, Brendan Rodgers and Neil Lennon in becoming a treble-winning Celtic manager if that happens and a full-stadium fan display referenced the club’s history before the game.
Huge images of Stein and Willie Maley filled both ends of Celtic Park with a banner declaring ‘stand on the shoulders of giants’.
Liel Abada made a lively start, before making way for James Forrest at half-time, and Celtic looked to have rediscovered the intensity missing since they won the title at Tynecastle.

Celtic continued to dominate. Matt O’Riley hit the post, Jota was just wide with an acrobatic flick and Reo Hatate came close before Starfelt headed home O’Riley’s corner in the 78th minute.
