Celtic goalkeeper Joe Hart faced a moment of embarrassment when he missed a penalty in the Scottish Cup semi-final, hitting the post. Nevertheless, he redeemed himself by saving a crucial penalty moments later, propelling his team, the Hoops, into the final.
The semi-final match was an intense affair, with a 3-3 draw leading to a shoot-out after Angus MacDonald’s last-minute equalizer. In an attempt to emulate his former colleague Ederson, who had scored a penalty for Manchester City in the Champions League, Hart’s effort hit the post, giving Aberdeen a lifeline. However, he immediately turned the situation around by denying Killian Phillips, securing Brendan Rodgers’ unbroken record at the national stadium.
The match itself was eventful, with goals from Bojan Miovski and Nicholas Kuhn for Aberdeen and Celtic, respectively. After James Forrest appeared to have secured the win for Celtic, a last-minute equalizer from Ester Sokler drove the game into a dramatic conclusion.
