Adam Idah scores a late winner to fire Celtic to a 1-0 win over Rangers in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park.
Adah Idah scored a 90th-minute winner to secure Celtic‘s 42nd Scottish Cup with a narrow 1-0 victory over Old Firm rivals Rangers at Hampden Park.
The first Old Firm Scottish Cup final in 22 years produced little goalmouth action in a tightly-contested first half.
With the final goalless at the break, Rangers thought they had found the crucial breakthrough when Adballah Sima turned the ball in from a corner, only to see his effort ruled out following a VAR review.
Rangers carried the greater threat in the second period, but they were ultimately punished for failing to capitalise on their moments of promise.
Adam Idah proved to be Celtic’s hero, pouncing on a rebound to tuck the ball into the awaiting net and spark scenes of jubilation among those wearing green and white.
Celtic protected their narrow advantage in stoppage time to clinch a league and cup double, ensuring Rangers will end the campaign with just the Scottish League Cup to show for their efforts.
