Celtic said on Wednesday that at the end of the current campaign, Parkhead would host a legends game between the Hoops and Borussia Dortmund.
Despite rumours of a possible conflict, the game is being held to benefit the Celtic FC Foundation and the Dundee Cancer Centre at Ninewells Hospital in memory of Scott Brown’s late sister Fiona.In fact, the charity game is slated to take place on Sunday, May 26, 2024—the same day as the Scottish Women’s Cup Final. Celtic, who play Montrose in the quarterfinals this weekend, has reasonable hopes of making it there.The Hoops faced the Rangers in the competition’s championship game the previous year. The players and supporters at Hampden made history on that day when the Celts defeated the Cowboys 2-0 to win back-to-back Scottish Cups.
That day, almost 10,000 supporters supported the sides; nevertheless, if Celtic advances to the final once more, a crowd of that size might not be anticipated. It goes without saying that fans will be more engaged in the game at Parkhead.As a result, Elena Sadiku and her players will be disregarded without their own fault. Although the women haven’t yet guaranteed a spot in the final, maybe the legends encounter may have taken place on a different weekend.But if they do, a problem will occur and Celtic supporters will have to decide which game to go to.
