# Celtic: Fans reminisce over great victory against Kilmarnock

**A lot of Celtic fans are loving a post on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/CelticFC/status/1252975950108614669?s=20) by the club showing highlights of their victory against Kilmarnock which includes the title-winning goal in the final moments of the match.**

It was one of the more stressful ways to claim the title, as the Hoops saw themselves drawing 1-1 with Killie back in 2007, via [BBC Sport.](https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/6574335.stm)

It looked like it was going to end as a draw, however Shunsuke Nakamura had one more chance to steal the three points as he lined up for a free kick. He wrong footed the goalkeeper as he curled the ball into the bottom left corner which sent the Celts fans behind the goal into absolute chaos.

It also meant manager Gordan Strachan had achieved the great feat of winning back to back titles in his first two seasons at the club, something which his predecessor Martin O’Neill had done also, via [BBC Sport](https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/6574335.stm).

Nakamura was adored by the fans during his career in Scotland and with special moments like the one at Killie, it is easy to see why he was such a fan favourite.

Here is what fans had to say following the tweet:
