— SCOTTISH CUP’FINAL
Celtic take on Dundee United at Hampden in a Scottish Cup Final which takes on special significance for both clubs. The League Championship already rests in the trophy room at Celtic Park, the result of their incredible consistency over the long 44-game season. Under Billy McNeilI. Celtic were a more determined, and more delensively sound side, and the new striking partnership did enough to dispel fears that the loss of Johnston and McClairwould prove terminal, even it Celtic's goals tally was a half-dozen lower than the supposedly defence-orientated Rangers. It would set the seal on their Centenary year it they could complete a League and Cup double which would equal Rangers record.
Dundee United, meanwhile, took a long time to shrug off last season‘s disappointments and a crippling succession 01 early injuries, but are the season's only victors at Celtic Park, and have enjoyed a sustained run since the turn of the year. The major question mark remains overtheir abililyto win at Hampden, and, more generally. of their genuine appetite for success when the final barrier must be surmounted, and a victory here would do much to dispel that doubt. It should be an open Final if nerves don‘t take bold, but Celtic's awesome will to win must make them favourites. Celtic‘s Centenary celebrations continue. meanwhile, with the publication at One Afternoon In Lisbon (Mainstream), in which Kevin McCarra and Pat Woods recall the club's most familiar match, with photographs by Oscar Marzaroli.
