Celtic are 90 minutes from a quadruple treble after easing past Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup semi-final for their 35th consecutive domestic cup win on Sunday.
They won by two goals. In the eighteenth minute, Ryan Christie’s favorite left foot curled a trademark drive into the far corner of the net and five minutes later, Mohamed Elyounoussi fired from close range to ensure that Neil Lennon's side will be in the December 20 final against Hearts.
Celtic will be back for Europa League action when they host Sparta Prague on Thursday.
