Celtic 2 Aberdeen 2 - 19th September 1987

Celtic followed up their Old Firm victory over Rangers with a 1-0 defeat at Pittodrie in the League Cup. In the league, a scoreless draw against Dundee United at Tannadice, and a 1-0 win against Falkirk at Brockville moved the Hoops back into top spot, albeit on the same points as both Aberdeen and Hearts. Rangers were climbing steadily up the table, 4 points back in 5th position.

This top of the table clash saw Celtic and Aberdeen fighting out a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park. Goals from Tommy Burns and Billy Stark were cancelled out by the Dons, with future Celt Joe Miller scoring the second equaliser. Miller would be a Celtic player within two months.








The other Aberdeen goal is missing and the order of the goals may be wrong. It was put together from different sources. Can anyone confirm the details for this game?
