Out of the Scottish Cup

Dunfermline crashed out of the scottish cup on sunday after a 4-2 defeat to the hands of Celtic. All eyes were focused on the Celtic teamsheet to see if Robbie Keane would be starting. The Republic of Ireland striker found him self on the bench at the start of the match but would later make a huge impact. Celtic pushed ahead in the early stages of the game with new loan striker Kammera. But Celtics joy was very short lived as straight from the kick ff the pars worked their way down the wing before Nicky Phinn played in David Graham sloted in the equalising goal. Dunfermline were then awarded a penalty shortly after and Andy Kirk stepped up to fire Dunfermline 2-1 up. Celtic scored in the turning point of the match in the 42nd minute to send both teams level at half time. The second have started and the main man had come on, Robbie Kean was on the pitch and was trying to make an immediate impact. Celtic edged ahead thanks to an own goal by defender Calum Woods before Celtic were awarded a penalty of their own. Keane stpped up and calmly slotted the ball passed a stranded Greg Flemming in the Dunfermline goal. Dunfermline seemed to run out of steam and Celtic ran out winners sending the pars out of the cup. It was an entertaining game and the near 9000 crowd produced a great atmosphere. Celtic now have a quarter final tie with Ross County.
Well done pars you played a great game.

  1. Neil, good cub sports reporter potential here and admirable lack of bias towards your team, which is more than can be said of most fans with typewriters. If this is an interest, pursue it because you have a good understanding of what is required.
