Having thrashed Dundee United the previous week in the league, Wim Jansen's side were firm favourites to lift the first trophy of the season when the sides met again in the League Cup Final at Ibrox. 90 minutes later, the Perm had his hands on his first silverware as Celtic manager, thanks to a comfortable 3-0 win.
The opening goal comes from the head of Marc Rieper in the 20th minute; the Dane rising to guide a Weighorst cross into the top corner with a delightful header. Only 3 minutes later and the lead was doubled - Henrik Larsson scoring with a deflected drive. Craig Burley added a third in the second half and the celebrations began. It was only the second trophy won by the club in 8 and a half seasons.
