Ange Postecoglou in emotional Celtic title address as boss details Parkhead journey 'belief'

Ange Postecoglou has emotionally thanked Celtic and his players after sealing his second Scottish Premiership title.

The Aussie boss choked up at full time as the Hoops made it two trophies this season with goals from Kyogo and Oh downing Hearts to start a Tynecastle title party. It was 95 points that was enough for Postecoglou and co to retain their crown and with the tantalising possibility of a treble up for grabs next month in the Scottish Cup Final.

The Parkhead gaffer joined in on the title celebrations at full time but stood a few paces back as the squad began their usual party routine and when quizzed after the game, the Aussie began to get emotional over his spell in Glasgow.

He told Sky Sports: "We've worked hard to get to this point to get two trophies and we want to win a third. I want it for the players, the staff because it's a reflection of the team we've been this year.

"Plenty of people in my circle have made sacrifices, my family, my kids...like I said I've got the easy bit. I'm doing what I love. But they're my constant support. Not just my family but my friends here and in Australia.

"The whole club really embraced me from day one. From that I can take pride in giving something back. It's not easy, but it's a great responsibility at this football club.

"It takes a hell of a lot to get to this point, you have to put everything in to this. You get emotional because you know what has gone in to it.

"I did have a moment, at the end of that first game, it felt like we had a mountain to climb, literally. I had belief I could do something here in terms of building a team."
