Scott Brown’s departure from Celtic to face Rangers proved that his loyalty to the Hoops runs deep. Throughout his 14-year career at Celtic, he was a key player in their success, winning multiple league titles and domestic cups.
During his time at Celtic, Brown faced Rangers 56 times, winning 25 matches and losing 23. He was not afraid to get stuck in, accumulating 26 cards over the years. One particular clash with Rangers’ Ryan Kent in 2019 stands out, where Kent was lucky to escape punishment for a punch on Brown.
After leaving Celtic for Aberdeen, Brown faced Kent once again, this time reveling in the moment as Kent was sent off for fouling him. Brown laughed and waved goodbye as Kent made his way off the pitch, showing his competitive spirit and love for the game.
Former Celtic manager Neil Lennon praised Brown’s antics, noting his ability to get under the skin of opponents. As the rivalry between Rangers and Celtic continues, all signs point to another intense battle when the two teams meet in the Scottish Cup final. Brown’s legacy as a Celtic legend lives on, even after his departure from the club.
