Lennon relieved as Bhoys avoid repeat of cup upset

CELTIC manager Neil Lennon admits he was relieved to avoid another Active Nation Scottish Cup upset after dumping Berwick Rangers out in the fourth round yesterday.

The Hoops boss suffered disappointment in last season’s semi-final against Ross County and he was keen to avoid a repeat of that result against the Irn-Bru Third Division outfit.

Berwick managed to pull off one of the biggest shocks in Scottish football when they defeated Rangers back in 1967 but they failed to match that achievement when goals from Daniel Majstorovic and Scott Brown sealed a 2-0 win for Celtic.
