The 2025 Scottish Cup final was the final match of the 2024âÂÂ25 Scottish Cup, the 140th edition of Scotland's most prestigious knockout football competition. It was contested by seven-time winners Aberdeen and 42-time winners and holders Celtic at Hampden Park, Glasgow, on 24 May 2025.
Aberdeen defeated Celtic 4âÂÂ3 on penalties, after both teams scored an own goal, winning the former its first major trophy since the 2013âÂÂ14 Scottish League Cup, and their first Scottish Cup title since 1989âÂÂ90. Aberdeen's goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov saved the first and last penalty kicks from Celtic, while Aberdeen scored on all four attempts.
The 2025 final was Aberdeen's 17th appearance in a Scottish Cup final, while it was a record 62nd final appearance for Celtic.
In the 39th minute Celtic took the lead when a corner from Arne Engels from the left was headed on by Cameron Carter-Vickers before flicking off Alfie Dorrington and going into the right corner of the net off the post for an own goal. It was 1-1 in the 83rd minute when Shayden Morris hit a low cross from the right which Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel attempted to flick away but only diverted it into his own net for another own goal. The match ended 1-1 and went to a penalty shoot-out after a goaless period of extra-time. In the penalty shoot-out Aberdeen goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov saved down low to his right from Callum McGregor and Alistair Johnston as Aberdeen went on to win 4-3 on penalties for a first Scottish Cup victory in 35 years.
