Hearts Fall at Aberdeen as End of Unbeaten Run Gives Celtic Extra Shot in Arm

Hearts suffered late injuries to key players and missed chances, allowing Aberdeen to capitalize on a quick transition for the only goal, ending Hearts' unbeaten run.

  • This past week, Aberdeen defeated Heart of Midlothian 1-0 at Pittodrie, with Topi Keskinen scoring a curling strike just before half-time.
  • Ahead of the match, Heart of Midlothian's preparations were hit by late injuries to Lawrence Shankland and Eduardo Ageu, while Craig Halkett was unavailable, leaving the team weakened.
  • A turnover allowed the decisive transition after Hearts gave the ball away 20-30 yards into their half, while set-pieces and late chances were wasted, including Pierre Landry Kabore's and a Harry Milne effort that hit the bar.
  • Despite the loss, Heart of Midlothian remain top of the table and Derek McInnes said the defeat won’t derail the season as they head to Motherwell next week.
  • After Celtic's win, Hearts' lead at the top tightened to four points, and Derek McInnes, Heart of Midlothian manager, confirmed scans are due on Monday while expressing confidence in his squad.
