Celtic v Hibernian - 2013 Scottish Cup Final

Wonderful save from Forster.

Wonderful deep cross from Stokes tees up Hooper for the opener.

Not looking too secure defensively, Hibernian getting a lot of joy in the wide areas. Harris looks a lively player on the Hibs right hand side.

Good touch and pass from Hooper to put Stokes in there. Playing decent football but Hibs looks dangerous.

Forrest can be very lazy in his defensive duties, McGivern getting in some good positions coming forward for Hibs.

Hooper with a header. :eek:

Stokes with another fantastic cross and it’s well finished by Hooper.

Big let-off for Celtic there, slack defending from Mulgrew.

Straightforward enough so far. Couple of scares at the back but they’re really poor defensively and Hooper and Stokes are linking well. Brown has been pure class.

Agreed, would bring on Sammy for Forrest who has been anonymous.

He looks injured or uninterested or both.

A considerable number of Ulster flags among Celtic support.q
Brown is a class act

For a guy who looked like he couldn’t string a yard pass together under Strachan and Mowbray, he has come on some level. I have to give Lennon credit for this.

Will u credit him for being at least partially responsible for the considerable number of Ulster flags too?

Proper Ulster flags I assume?

No.

Just chatting to Frank McAvenie and Bandage here. Frank reckons Hopper should have gone on to grab a hat trick after scoring 2 in 20 minutes. Best we’ve got but a centre forward should be punishing teams when they’re rattled according to Francis.

Wow - drinking with a celebrity.

McAvenie must be pretty proud as well.

Frank never has the glass far from his lips. He’s sipping away even while walking.

Just chatting to Tony Stokes. Delighted to be MoTM. What better way to end the season than with a double, he said. Delighted also to be able to contribute having missed the first half of the season.
