| Kick off |
Aberdeen came from behind to force extra-time and then win the cup on penalties. The final was largely disappointing, lacking quality and excitement until the last 10 minutes of normal time.
In the closing minutes both sides had chances to win but the match could not be decided after 120 minutes and went to penalty kicks. Aberdeen converted all their penalties expertly and like in 1990 they claimed the old trophy on penalties at Celtic's expense.
