On this day, 20 years ago, Celtic played Hibernian at Celtic Park. It was a rare occasion in which the Bhoys wore an away kit on home soil. However, there was nothing rare about Henrik Larsson being among the goals as the King of Kings scored a magnificent brace, before Mark Burchill rounded off proceedings.
Meanwhile, fans of an older age may recall the Hoops beating Rangers 3-1 at Parkhead on this day. There was another brace scored that afternoon, by Tom McAdam, whilst George McCluskey scored the other goal for the Celts.
