Rangers 2 v 1 Celtic - League Cup Final 1986

[@anthonyarmstrong14]

My first old firm game.I'm an Aussie who was living in Belfast from 86 to 92. I'll never forget those times.Go the Gers.❤

[@robinmcewen3286]

When you watch all the OF matches from the 80s the thing that grabs you most is the skill level they have at the pace of the game. Cooper, Burns, McStay, Durrant, Ferguson, Grant - all of them at their peak could have played in England. No bother. These matches from about 1983-89 were dynamite. The 4-4 match at Ibrox was the greatest match I ever saw. And the only time both sets of fans were applauding both teams at the end. Was astonishing.

[@graemepaulmasson8528]

The speed this game was played at, unreal

[@colshythecomedian]

I have always thought that Davie Cooper should have a statue outside Ibrox of him being hoisted aloft by his teammates after scoring that winning penalty. I can't understand why the great man hasn't got a full statue there yet!

[@scotiajinker8392]

I was at that game , then off into to Nile bar in West Nile st for a wee sing song in the basement. Some time later the rangers director mr Paton game into the pub with the cup. Someone somewhere has a photo of me drinking champagne from the cup. Happy days 💙💙💙

[@robertjohnstone7635]

sooper cooper a true blue nose o how he'd love the game today ? a rangers & scotland legend

[@Itsdandaney]

How brilliant is Archie on the commentary by the way

[@colshythecomedian]

Chris Woods what a hero!

[@urbankhat65]

Mo Johnston,Rangers legend,they'll never forgive him.

[@johncampbell5056]

Still find it hard to forgive him, broke my heart, remember where I was when I heard he signed for the dark side😉 he was second only to Mcstay in my head, loved him, how could he, baffling, it's so wrong, its like mcoist playing for us, no thanks, don't you dare pull on our beloved hoops ally!!! Just wouldn't want him, we'd boycott paradise until he got himsel tae f×××, it's just no right, can't think of a bigger no no, ruined his life, now BOTH sides hate him!!!🤔😉, I was 15 when he he did the unthinkable, it hurt me and changed something inside my gut, took years to realise that he has obviously got mental problems and issues he hadn't resolved since childhood, hope he's a decent person now and he understands that loyalty and honesty are two VERY important if not THE most important things in life, rangers are awful but all the best anyway,😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

First cup final, I was 7. Davie Cooper is still my hero

[@kennethmckean6880]

I was there section j, brilliant day, get it up yeez, was only 15 , can remember it like it was yesterday

[@georgefoster8133]

First old firm final for this 14 yo from Belfast, will never forget it.

[@davidbarr9343]

Section J always went there. Loved it, am 62 now but remember it well. WATP.

[@Div4Dante]

Davie Cooper what a class act⚽️👍🏼👍🏼💙

[@Irenemckendrick]

The King of kings❤❤❤

[@SMSJSC]

World class. Can hardly believe Coop got only 20 Scottish caps.

[@fantasybecomesreality6451]

There is not a player in the current squads who would have got on that pitch that day. I was there btw my wee pal got in wearing a pie sellers bib one of the 219 who got in without a ticket.

[@darrendouglas3704]

Think was record pie sellers that day 20.000 easily bibbed up ,Doubled Up or Lifted Up & over lol Never get these armospheres again ruined Hampden need binos now fecking running track nonsense

I’m from England, up the rangers 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@billygray3875]

Gave them another defeat in the toon after it as well. Going by the high flats at the gorbals getting all sorts throw oot the windaes at us. Cooper n wee durranty were brilliant that day

[@joepaccrakurii1227]

As a celt I've got to say it was a fucking shame Durant went through that, the lad was class

[@HUGGY-tr4zd]

Pretty much destroyed the boys career, Although am sure a few Kilmarnock fans would disagree . Still was a great player after getting injured

[@graemerodgers7754]

🎵 There's only one Davie Cooper. 🎵

[@alanshaw8231]

see all the horror tackles on Cooper, scum of the earth taught a lesson when we won 2-1 WATP

[@alichutchison9137]

Was there Derek Ferguson outstanding and Davy Cooper totally termented the Celtic defence and the Rangers end giving it laldy💯🇬🇧

[@rangerista3933]

What a game, our team and fans were magnificent!

[@allanhunter1170]

Remember this fondly!

[@thomjer5276]

Proper football in the day, when they got straight up from a tackle. Unlike today where they get 10/10 for artistic impression. Souness got the best out of his team's when he was in charge.

[@Jamie-kv9eg]

5:37 nae idea how he’s in the celtic end

[@cannonfodder6654]

Its a green, white and yellow Union flag

[@jockgnu9026]

that was a great game and just a few short years later MoJo left the dark side and saw the light.

[@Multijoe84]

Joined the dark side and set in motion the liquidation which would later catch up with them.

[@CronoXpono]

@@Multijoe84 I've got no dog in this fight but it's ASTOUNDING the fees and pay packets Rangers were paying compared to the rest of the country. Pretty shocking, really.

No better game in the world when evenly matched

And even back in 1986 the 6 most spoken words in Scottish football commentary “and it’s a penalty to Rangers”

[@duncanmackenzie2410]

Say back in 86 tims getting away with murder on the pitch...

[@gordonferrar7782]

Surprised nobody got whiplash at this breakneck speed pure intensity.

[@goodwin9114]

My dad had this on video and we watched this game load. I always wonder what souness and hay were dying to each other on the way out of the tunnel. Neither of them looks best impressed.

[@kingzippythethird]

Best Rangers Team. Soon we'll be better. Can't wait for the next 5 - 1. We will be back! We're coming back in here!

[@cutekanjii]

The games were much more end to end fast and exciting in those days, I like how there's much more dribbling and running. Today its all pass pass pass jogging pace or even standing still boring. I don't think they teach or encourage dribbling in training these days especially any rangers training videos with Gerrard obsession with passing in little circles. The aim of the game is to score goals not pass it around in your own half for half an hour. Even the standard in commentary is awful today compared to those days. You know its true when it's not just older people but people who weren't even born at the time saying it was better then.

[@tonynesbit9673]

Spot on mate todays footie is shite/boring.

[@GJW80]

Who's the co-commentator? Jim McLean? Sounds like him.

The days of competence balance. When football was actually sport and not business. Today's game isn't worth watching at any level in many countries. I've given up hope of it ever being good again in my lifetime

I remember the day after an Arsenal friendly, we all walked through Brigton, took over the boozers, the huns were raging, they were too shit scared to do anything, a real party day in their midden, great times indeed.

[@sansoucci5394]

So you fkn did.

[@kradomc]

Scottish football was great back then, now it's pointless shit!

[@Romamb]

Not our fault. It's the fault of FIFA/UEFA. They have allowed completion to take 2nd place to finance. Just not sport anymore

[@sansoucci5394]

How many times in the Old Ibrox when they gave the "official" attendance did people laugh! 30.000 in the old Ibrox and the the place was empty!Rangers especially could take 15-20000 off the gate,the old ground was that big And where did that money go???.Hampden was a bit bigger though so god knows what jiggery pokery went on there.

Totally agree..Cannae believe the stamina of all the players, blues or greens. They never bludy stopped running from start to finish, and what a double-swerve at high speed from Cooper. High- octane stuff. Today it's overpriced, overpaid "players" passing, jogging about, and spitting everywhere.

Typical Roy Aitken, obstructs Cooper, brings him down then has a go at Cooper for being on the floor. Always thought Aitken was one of the least talented Celtic players ever. Bloody cart horse.

[@raymondhosie5690]

ffs some of these challenges would get ye hung these days :)

[@dublinsfaircity]

Excellent game. Celtic unlucky to hit the post twice and i thought the penalty awarded to Rangers was never a penalty. You wouldn't even get a penalty for that in todays softer VAR game.
