Celtic Star Daizen Maeda’s Cheeky Social Media Post Sparks Amusement Among Fans
The Old Firm rivalry between Celtic and Rangers is renowned for its intensity, and the latest development has seen Celtic star Daizen Maeda indulge in a bit of banter. The Japanese international took to social media to post a smiling photo alongside an action shot of himself celebrating Celtic’s 2-0 victory over Dundee United at Celtic Park. The timing of the post, which came moments after Rangers dropped more points in a 1-1 draw with Dundee, raised a few eyebrows and sparked plenty of amusement among the Hoops faithful.
This is not the first time Celtic have engaged in a bit of social media banter. Last weekend, after Rangers’ 3-3 draw with Hibs, Celtic’s official social media account posted a picture of Brendan Rodgers with a beaming smile and thumbs up right at full-time – a not-so-subtle nod to their rivals’ struggles.
Celtic’s dominance in Scottish football continues to grow, with the Hoops extending their lead at the top of the table to a staggering 15 points. Despite a recent setback at Ibrox, Celtic remain the team to beat in Scotland, cruising towards another SPFL title.
In contrast, Rangers’ inconsistency continues to be their downfall. The Gers have shown up for big games but often falter against sides they’re expected to beat, further cementing the gap in class between the two clubs.
Maeda’s social media post has been hailed by fans as a perfectly executed bit of banter, reinforcing the feel-good atmosphere around Paradise. While Rangers continue to drop points, Celtic keep marching on – and the players know exactly how to have a laugh along the way.
The Old Firm rivalry is known for its intensity, and the latest development has only added fuel to the fire. Celtic’s fans will be delighted to see their team’s players enjoying themselves, and Maeda’s post has only served to increase the anticipation for the next meeting between the two sides.
As the season wears on, Celtic’s dominance shows no signs of abating. The Hoops are cruising towards another SPFL title, and their players are clearly enjoying themselves.
