Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers saluted "big-game player" Adam Idah after his dramatic late winner against Rangers in the 150th anniversary Scottish Gas Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park.

The 23-year-old Republic of Ireland striker, who joined on loan from Norwich in the winter transfer window, took over from Kyogo Furuhashi in the second half after a Rangers goal had been chalked off for an infringement and he pounced on a fumble by Gers keeper Jack Butland in the last minute of normal time to fire in the winner.
