Sky Sports Cameras Capture Incredible Slide Tackle From Steward On Celtic Fan Who Invaded Pitch

Sky Sports cameras perfectly captured one of the greatest slide tackles in history - and it wasn't even during the game.

In the final game of the Scottish Premiership, Celtic hammered Motherwell 6-0 at Parkhead in a stunning title party.

The Bhoys wrapped up a tenth title in eleven seasons on Wednesday after drawing 1-1 with Dundee United at Tannadice Park.

And Ange Postecoglou's side finished the season in style before lifting the title, with Kyogo Furuhashi and Giorgos Giakoumakis both bragging braces and David Turnbull and Jota on target in the resounding win.

Celtic lifted the title after the game and the celebrations brought a hilarious moment as a steward completely took out a supporter.

The fan, wearing a green and white hooped shirt, had made his way onto the pitch and looked to get to Postecoglou as he was giving an interview live on Sky.

But he was stopped right in his tracks by a steward, who stuck his left leg out and send him tumbling to the turf.

He definitely got the man first before the ball but what a piece of defending. The fan was then grabbed by another steward and escorted away.

Give that man a contract for next season right now.
