Joe Hart fights back emotions as Celtic fans unveil 'Super Joe' tifo on Trophy Day

Joe Hart fought back the tears on the pitch as he received his own tifo from Celtic supporters.

The Hoops goalkeeper has confirmed that he will retire at the end of this season which makes this afternoon's clash with St Mirren at Parkhead his final game in front of the home support. Next weekend the stopper will play his last professional game in the Scottish Cup Final against Rangers and he'll want to go out on a high.

The veteran, 37, was tearful in a Celtic TV interview this week as he bid an emotional farewell after three years in Glasgow but now he's had another chance to try and avoid an emotional state as the fans showed how much he means to them.

As he and his teammates re-emerged from the tunnel for the start of the second-half vs the Buddies, the Green Brigade unveiled a tifo for him.

A picture of the goalie in celebration was captioned: "Super Joe Hart", as punters sang his chant to his delight as he applauded and thanked those involved.

Hart has now won more trophies as a Celtic player than he did during his time at Manchester City.
