Scottish Cup final: Celtic chasing the double
Celtic face Dunfermline in the Scottish Cup final today, with the chance to seal a domestic double after already securing the league title (1). Daizen Maeda got things rolling in the 19th minute, Arne Engels doubled the lead in the 36th, and Kelechi Iheanacho made it 3–0 in the 73rd. Dunfermline pulled one back in the 80th, but Celtic are cruising toward the trophy.
SFA admits title tainted by refereeing error
The Scottish FA has acknowledged that a refereeing error marred Celtic's title win this season (2). It does not strip the trophy from the cabinet, but it gives rivals something to point at. For a campaign that deserved to be remembered purely for dominance on the pitch, this leaves a frustrating asterisk.
Maeda: last dance?
Speculation is building that today's Scottish Cup final could be Daizen Maeda's final game for Celtic (3). The Japanese forward scored in the first half against Dunfermline and has been instrumental for the club. Nothing confirmed, but the noise is loud enough that fans should savour every minute he plays.
Fan reactions
The Reddit threads are pure celebration, with fans buzzing about a first-half blitz that put the final to bed early. Maeda's opener got the party started and Iheanacho's third had supporters calling it a statement performance. The vibe is one of a club enjoying its dominance and a fanbase soaking up every moment of cup final day. Join the discussion on r/soccer.
