“the worst” Callum McGregor’s reacts and speak about Celtic F.C. Scottish Cup finals defeat to Aberdeen

Published

Celtic’s penalty shoot-out loss to Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup left Callum McGregor with a melancholy demeanour.

The penalty drama was initiated in the most unfavourable manner imaginable when the Celtic captain missed the Hoops’ initial spot kick.

Alistair Johnston’s 12-yard free kick was saved by Dimitar Mitov, further aggravating Celtic’s dismal day. The Pittodrie club secured its first Scottish Cup in 35 years. Aberdeen executed their penalties with relative simplicity.

Despite the agonising defeat, McGregor addressed the media and delivered a magnificent promise to the Parkhead supporters for the upcoming season.


Scottish Cup elimination against Aberdeen was “the worst” for Celtic captain Callum McGregor.

Until yesterday, Callum McGregor had never lost a Hampden final as a Celtic player at any level. Consequently, this defeat will be particularly painful for the 31-year-old.

Nevertheless, the Celtic captain is expressing his disappointment in his initial significant final loss as a Celtic player.

In an interview with The Scottish Sun, McGregor stated, “That’s the worst. I’ll just need to try and get away and get over it, and come back next year and be stronger.”

“We did not perform adequately during the game to warrant such a result.” Additionally, penalties may result in any outcome.

“In previous instances, we have emerged victorious; however, today, we were unsuccessful.” It is an extremely painful conclusion to the season.

“The season has been exceptional up to this point.” We simply did not accomplish enough today to conclude the task.

“It is a difficult moment; I have experienced similar challenges in the past.” It is likely that this is the most challenging when all factors are considered.

Callum McGregor’s commitment to demonstrate “steel” in response to Celtic’s Scottish Cup defeat

McGregor is tied with Bobby Lennox, the Lisbon Lion, in terms of the total number of significant honours won for Celtic, with 24 winners’ medals to his name.

Nevertheless, McGregor has pledged to leverage the Scottish Cup disappointment to emerge even more formidable for the upcoming season, despite the fact that he missed the opportunity to become Celtic’s second most-decorated player of all time.

McGregor continued, “Listen, I have previously recovered from challenging circumstances, and it will require some time for me to overcome this one.”

“However, it is incumbent upon me to demonstrate my resilience once the new season commences.” We are so accustomed to success that the absence of it is felt ten times more acutely. You experience it more intensely.

“It is likely the most distressing experience I have ever encountered on the football pitch.” It is certain that there will be a learning experience involved.

“It is currently in an extremely raw state.” Certainly, the group can benefit from it and become more proficient.

“Occasionally, it is necessary to endure adversity in order to develop and improve.”

McGregor and his Celtic colleagues can be proud of their accomplishments this year, as they have achieved progress in the Champions League and completed another double-winning season.

Celtic is expected to achieve additional domestic success if Brendan Rodgers is able to enhance the team’s quality during the summer.

Celtic supporters will take their medicine this summer, as they have not experienced many defeats in Hampden finals over the years, similar to McGregor.
