Celtic mourn loss of Lisbon Lion Chalmers
Celtic are mourning the loss of a second Lisbon Lion inside a week following the death of Stevie Chalmers, the man who scored their 1967 European Cup winner. Chalmers has died at the age of 83, less than a week after his former team-mate and captain, Billy McNeill.
The Glasgow-born forward etched his name into Celtic folklore when his deft touch secured victory over Inter Milan in the Portuguese capital. Like McNeill, father-of-six Chalmers had been suffering from dementia in recent years.
