The game is best remembered for Patsy Gallacher's equalising goal for Celtic, where he somersaulted over the goalkeeper into the goal with the ball between his feet.Campbell Tom Woods Pat The Glory & The Dream 1987 Grafton 9780586200056 119 Match details Report Dundee dominated the early stages of the game. They ably defended against Celtic's forwards, whilst their own attackers repeatedly threatened the Celtic goal. Dundee took the lead after 30 minutes when David McLean scored with a fine shot. The rest of the first half saw the game fluctuate, with both goalkeepers kept busy. However, both sets of defenders restricted their opponents to long range shots. The second half saw Celtic constantly pushing forward for an equaliser, but were repeatedly thwarted by Dundee goalkeeper Jock Britton. The Dundee attack was largely nullified due to Celtic's pressure in attack. Celtic eventually equalised on 81 minutes: Peter Wilson passed to Patsy Gallacher, who dribbled past several Dundee defenders. Close to goal, Gallacher was tackled and fell, but he gripped the ball in between his feet and somersaulted into the goal - tangling himself in the goalnet in the process. Dundee's confidence was visibly shaken after that, with Britton time-wasting at taking goal-kicks, and virtually every outfield player now acting as a defender. On 86 minutes, Celtic scored what proved to be the winning goal. John McFarlane took a free kick, sending it towards goal, and Jimmy McGrory headed it in to put Celtic 2-1 ahead.Scottish Cup Final: Celtic 2 Dundee ! https://wikifoundryimages.s3.amazonaws.com/e8b47d4dd6b6ba70765353f8eb081a87 6 January 2022 The Scotsman (via Celtic Wiki) 13 April 1925 Details 11 April 1925 Celtic 2 – 1 Dundee Gallacher 81' McGrory 86' McLean 30' Hampden Park, Glasgow T.
