Kasper Schmeichel’s Brilliant Boxing Day Post

Kasper Schmeichel continued his post-match clean sheet celebrations, with the Dane celebrating the Hoops going 12 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Schmeichel coincidentally waited until 19:45 to take to Instagram, when Rangers had just dropped 3 points in a 2-1 defeat in Paisley against St. Mirren.

With the Dane often stealing headlines on the pitch with his match-winning saves, his social media posts after games have become somewhat of a tradition after impressive wins and standout performances from the Hoops.

Schmeichel has become well ingrained in the winning culture at Celtic.

At 38 years old, the Danish goalkeeper has seen almost everything in his career; however, he is clearly taking extra pride in the Hoops going 12 points clear ahead of the Glasgow derby in a week’s time at Ibrox.

When called upon, Schmeichel has stood tall time and time again, with his performance in the penalty shootout against Rangers in the Premier Sports Cup final a huge moment in his first season at Celtic.

With huge boots to fill in Joe Hart, who retired in the summer, Schmeichel has very much learned from his close friend Hart, with the two previously playing together at Manchester City from 2006 until 2009.
