In addition to all these games, there have been many of other famous Celtic days in the Scottish Cup. This includes historic days such as winning the 100th Scottish Cup (beating Dundee United in 1985), and winning the 2024 trophy, which marked 150 years of the Scottish Cup.

Other moments have been a central part of Celtic’s story, including 1972 when the Celts beat Hibs 6-1 to claim their biggest victory in the final.
The Celts have a fantastic history in the Scottish Cup, and hopefully this week’s final will be another significant chapter. But, so far, what’s been your favourite Celtic moment in the Scottish Cup?
