Do yourself a favour and watch the Celtic TV Unique Angle from the SWPL Cup Final at Firhill yesterday when Celtic defeated Glasgow City 1-0 to lift the League Cup and bring it back to Paradise…
Celtic FC Manager, Fran Alonso punches the air in delight following his sides 1-0 victory during the Scottish Womens Premier League Cup Final match between Glasgow City FC & Celtic FC at Firhill Stadium, Maryhill, Scotland on 5 December 2021.
And here’s Fran Alonso speaking to Celtic TV. “I think that this will be the first of many because I think that the sky is the limit for this group.”
The Celtic Star has been right behind the Celtic FC Women project and have built up a good relationship with Fran and his players. It was therefore extra special to be at Firhill yesterday and to see Celtic beat Glasgow City for the first time since Fran first game in charge.
Now the focus will turn to the league and the biggest factor yesterday is that Celtic now know there’s no team that they’ve to play this season that they aren’t more than capable of seeing off. Glasgow City until yesterday reckoned that they had the measure of Celtic and that we were inferior to them as a football team. They’d won the league for 14 years in a row and never felt that they were going to lose it last season, despite the Celtic challenge. Now it’s different. Times they are a changing in the Scottish Women’s game and for Celtic the tide is coming in.
Time to bring home the title Fran…
