Kenny Dalglish scored one of the best goals you will see on this day in 1976. In a Scottish Cup clash at Fir Park against Motherwell, the Scottish striker who would later be referred to as ‘King Kenny’ lashed in a thunderous free-kick.
It was a stunning effort from over 25 yards on and Celtic would then score again through Andy Lynch.
However, Celtic would in fact lose the game 3-2 despite being two up at half time. The second half collapse resulted in the first time the Parkhead side had been knocked out of the Third Round since 1968.
