Martin O’Neill will face his former captain Neil Lennon in the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup final after Celtic booked their spot in the showpiece against Dunfermline with an eventful 6-2 extra-time win over St Mirren.

A horror mistake by Saints stand-in goalkeeper Ryan Mullen saw Daizen Maeda give the Hoops a first-minute lead at Hampden and to add to the Buddies’ woes the errant number two picked up an injury and had to be replaced after just 14 minutes by 17-year-old debutant Grant Tamosevicius.
