The1988 Scottish Cup Final was played betweenCeltic andDundee United atHampden Park on 14 May 1988. Celtic had reached the final after coming from behind to defeatHearts 2-1 in the semi-final, while Dundee United had defeatedAberdeen 1-0 in their semi-final after two replays.[1]

Celtic won 2–1, withFrank McAvennie scoring both of their goals. They had been 1-0 down afterKevin Gallacher put Dundee United ahead, only for McAvennie to score a late equaliser and then a winner with a low right foot shot at the back post after a corner to completethe double for Celtic, who were alreadyPremier Division champions.[2]

The guest of honour was British prime minister,Margaret Thatcher, who attended the match in an effort to improve her dismal popularity in Scotland.[citation needed] Expecting a negative reaction to the sight of players shaking the prime minister's hand, the traditional receiving line was moved to a snooker room in the halls of Hampden.[citation needed] Even so, several staffers and players from both teams (includingMick McCarthy, the son of Yorkshire miners) refused to meet or acknowledge Thatcher, and she was greeted by supporters of both teams by a wave of red cards.[citation needed] As she took her seat, thousands of supporters of both teams sang "you can stick yourpoll tax up your arse".[citation needed]

Report

[edit]

After a goalless first half,Kevin Gallacher opened the scoring for Dundee United a few minutes after halftime. Gallacher outpaced Celtic'sRoy Aitken to a ball which had been headed forward byEamonn Bannon and shot passed Celtic's goalkeeperAllen McKnight, who was in the team due to an injury to Celtic's regular goaliePackie Bonner. Shortly afterwards United failed to take the opportunity to increase their lead when Bannon missed two good opportunities. This proved costly whenFrank McAvennie equalised for Celtic. McAvennie then scored the winner with 50 seconds of play remaining.[3]

The defeat meant that United had now lost all five Scottish Cup finals that they had played in. The scoreline and pattern of the match was noted by reporterJim Traynor for being similar to the1985 final when Celtic had also defeated United. Traynor suggested that for Dundee United the 1988 final was like a 're-run of a bad movie'.[3]
