Celtic this season have achieved a feat some clubs can only dream of. The reigning Scottish champions went through the season with zero defeats. It was the first time Scotland witnessed an ‘invincible’ campaign in their domestic league in more than a century.

Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic managed to break a lot of records on the way. The Celts won a record 34 games and had eight games to spare before they were crowned champions.

They also scored 106 goals in their league triumph, with Moussa Dembele and Scott Sinclair banging in 22 and 21 goals respectively.

But their most incredible achievement was that they managed to get a whopping 106 points in the league. It became a new European record, surpassing Welsh team Barry Town’s 105 points in 1996/97 season.

Celtic also went a record 30 points clear of second-placed Aberdeen, who finished the season with 76 points.
