Sebastian Tounekti: Mood in the camp is great With the Allsvenskan league operating inside the calendar year, Sebastian Tounekti has now played 72 games since last March for Hammarby, Celtic and the Tunisian national side, in what has basically been a non-stop season-and-a-half for the attacking winger. All the focus is now on the remaining five games of the season, though, with the last of those games, the Scottish Cup final, taking a back seat for the moment – and with good reason. With four wins in April, another four-in-a-row in the final quartet of SPFL meetings could see five-in-a-row as far as league titles go for the Hoops, and Tounekti would like nothing better ahead of hopefully increasing his match schedule with further Tunisia games in the World Cup.

The first of those four games is against Hibernian at Easter Road this Sunday , and Tounekti said: “The form has been really good recently “We are developing well at the moment, but, of course we know these games are going to be so hard. “Every game is really hard, and difficult, so for us, we have to be at our best, but the motivation is so high at the moment. ‘We want to win every game now, so we are going to give everything in all of these games.

’ “The mood is really high at the moment, the result in the last game was really good. “So, the mood in the camp is brilliant to be honest, it’s so nice to be here now and everybody is just happy and ready to go again. ” It’s not often we see a three-horse race in Scotland, especially at this stage of the run-in with everything to play for.

The winger said: “It’s crazy. I think you have the expectation when you come to Celtic that maybe it’s always going to be like a two-horse race between us and Rangers, but Hearts have been really good for this whole year, so it’s funny to be in, it’s quite exciting also. “For us, it’s all about us and trying to take it per match and trying to improve in every game.

'We know that if we do our best and when we are at our best, then we have a big chance to go the whole way. ' He added on the Hearts challenge: “I think everybody is impressed, you can say whatever you want but they have been doing really good through the whole season, so credit to them. “We just have to focus on ourselves.
