Celtic hit St Mirren for six in extra-time blitz to reach Scottish Cup final

Martin O’Neill will face his former captain Neil Lennon in the Scottish Cup final after Celtic booked their spot in the showpiece against Dunfermline with an eventful 6-2 extra-time win over St Mirren.

A horror mistake by Saints stand-in goalkeeper Ryan Mullen saw Daizen Maeda give the Hoops a first-minute lead at Hampden and to add to the Buddies’ woes the errant number two picked up an injury and had to be replaced after just 14 minutes by 17-year-old debutant Grant Tamosevicius.
