The 2013 Scottish Cup final was the 128th final of the Scottish Cup, the most prestigious knockout football competition in Scotland. The match took place at Hampden Park on 26 May 2013 and was contested by Hibernian and Celtic. It was the first time the two clubs had played each other in the Scottish Cup since the 2001 final, which Celtic won 3–0, but Hibs' second consecutive final following their heavy defeat against Hearts the previous year. For the first time in its history, the Scottish Cup final was played on a Sunday.[2]
Celtic won the match 3–0, taking a 2–0 lead in the first through two Gary Hooper goals, before Joe Ledley added a third late in the second half.[3] It was their 36th win of the Cup, extending their own record.
