Hearts-supporting MP Ian Murray has backed Derek McInnes' side to win the title "the hard way" after Celtic's "gut-wrenching" penalty set up a final-day decider at Parkhead. Kelechi Iheanacho's spot-kick deep in added time - awarded after Sam Nicholson was deemed to have handball the ball from a Celtic throw-in - kept the defending champions a point behind Hearts, who beat Falkirk 3-0. It means Hearts will be crowned Scottish champions for the first time in 66 years only if they avoid defeat at Celtic Park on Saturday.
