Video 👇 - Celtic secured an eighth consecutive title in style with a convincing win away to wasteful Aberdeen.

The Dons' James Wilson fired wastefully against a post before Mikael Lustig's diving header opened the scoring.
Jozo Simunovic rose to meet a Callum McGregor corner after half-time before Odsonne Edouard fired the third.

For Celtic not to have finished the weekend as champions, Aberdeen would have had to have ended the visitors' 11-game unbeaten run, combined with a win for second-placed Rangers at home to Hibernian on Sunday.

Celtic will now eye matching the nine titles in a row they last achieved in 1974 and which was matched by city rivals Rangers in 1997.
Aberdeen remain in a battle for fourth with Kilmarnock.
