Celtic secured their spot in the Scottish Cup Final after a tense penalty shootout victory over Aberdeen at Hampden Park. Despite both teams fighting hard throughout normal and extra time, it all came down to the dreaded spot kicks to determine the finalists for the May 25th showdown.
After Joe Hart’s crucial save of Aberdeen’s sixth penalty, Brendan Rodgers and his team were able to punch their ticket to the Final. However, the celebration was momentarily dampened by an embarrassing mistake from the SFA.
A message displayed on the screens at Hampden mistakenly referred to Celtic as “Scotthish Cup Finalists,” highlighting a slight oversight in the excitement of the moment. Despite the blunder, the thrilling match showcased the unmatched entertainment that Scottish football has to offer.
Now, Rodgers and his players await the outcome of the match between Rangers and Hearts to see who they will be facing in the Final. The anticipation for the upcoming showdown continues to build as the competition heats up.
