5th October, 1991, Celtic Park - Celtic 3 Hearts 1
The match was notable for flop Tony Cascarino netting his first goal for the Hoops in fortunate fashion after seeming to kick the turf before the ball, and then being sent off for an apparent punch to the jaw of Hearts defender Craig Levein. Packie Bonner saved the resultant spot-kick though and the ten-men of Celtic held out for the win in the glorious autumn sunshine.
