Celtic are officially champions of Scotland.
Brendan Rodgers has guided the Hoops to their third successive Scottish Premiership title.
After Saturday's 2-1 victory over Rangers, it was all but secured, with a six-point gap opened up.
Philippe Clement's side came from behind to win against Dundee at Ibrox on Tuesday evening, but Celtic knew they just had to avoid defeat when they travelled to Kilmarnock tonight if they wanted to be crowned league winners - with one game remaining.
And that's exactly what they delivered.
Celtic produced one of the performances of the season to thrash Killie 5-0, with a Matt O'Riley brace plus goals from Daizen Maeda, Adam Idah and James Forrest setting up the prospect of a domestic double later this month.

It'll be full party mode for the Celtic players fans now though as they head back up to Glasgow to celebrate their latest triumph.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
