Ange Postecoglou has lifted the Scottish Cup to finish a memorable trophy treble – however Celtic followers worry it could have been the ultimate triumphant act of their beloved Australian supervisor.
Celtic beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle 3-1 at Glasgow’s Hampden Park on Saturday to finish a powerful season through which Postecoglou had already guided them to the Scottish League Cup and Premiership.
However with rising hypothesis that the in-demand former Socceroos boss could possibly be on his approach to handle English Premier League giants Tottenham, there was a bittersweet feeling for the Celtic followers who’ve come to idolise their 57-year-old boss.
Their Scottish Cup triumph, successfully sealed with targets from Kyogo Furuhashi, Liel Abada and Jota, got here after a battle from Caley, who had diminished the deficit to 2-1 within the eighty fifth minute via sub Daniel Mackay.
But it surely could not cease Postecoglou sealing his fifth trophy in two success-laden seasons through which he is reworked a grand previous membership’s fortunes and joined Martin O’Neill, Brendan Rodgers and the good Jock Stein as their solely treble-winning managers.
It was the eighth time Celtic have achieved the home treble, a world file for a serious league that takes them previous their nice Glasgow rivals, Rangers.
