Hearts 3-0 Falkirk - What McInnes said

Hearts manager Derek McInnes didn't hold back after his side's commanding 3-0 victory over Falkirk, a result that sets up a winner-takes-all showdown at Celtic Park on the final day of the season. With just one point separating the top two, the stage is set for a dramatic conclusion—and McInnes had plenty to say about the controversy brewing elsewhere.

"When they were checking a 96th-minute penalty, you just assume Celtic are getting it," McInnes told Sky Sports, referencing the late spot-kick that kept Celtic within striking distance. "It's disgusting. We're up against everybody. I don't think it's a penalty. If I'm Motherwell, I'm really disappointed. It's so poor, and it looks as though they've been given it. They're very fortunate."

Despite the frustration, McInnes couldn't hide his pride in his own team's performance. Hearts dominated Falkirk from start to finish, securing a comfortable win that puts them on 80 points with one game remaining—a remarkable tally that underscores their consistency this season.

"I thought the focus and concentration of the game was really good," he said. "For us to get to 80 points with a game to go is unbelievable shooting. It's a great effort from everybody, and I couldn't be more proud of the team for dealing with the game."

Now, it all comes down to one match: a draw at Celtic Park would be enough for Hearts to be crowned champions. "It's going to the last game," McInnes added. "We're delighted to be part of it. To do it, we're going to have to go and get a positive result. What a game it's going to be."

For fans looking to gear up for the big day, there's no better time to rep your team's colors—whether it's the famous maroon of Hearts or the green and white of Celtic, the right kit can make all the difference when the pressure is on.
