St Mirren Stun Celtic 3-1 to Win Scottish League Cup

Jonah Ayunga scored twice to secure St. Mirren's upset win, ending Celtic's troubled season marked by managerial changes and Champions League exit.

  • On Sunday, St Mirren beat Celtic 3-1 at Hampden Park, ending the defending champions' League Cup reign.
  • Following a Champions League exit, Celtic arrived at the final amid wider troubles, with Brendan Rodgers resigning in October and Wilfried Nancy hired from Columbus Crew this month.
  • Key moments came from Fraser's early strike and Ayunga's second-half brace, with Marcus Fraser putting St Mirren ahead in the second minute and Reo Hatate levelling midway through the half.
  • St Mirren returned the trophy to Paisley, claiming a major honour while increasing pressure on the Celtic board and Wilfried Nancy after a poor start to his tenure.
  • The defeat compounds a campaign already hit by European elimination, with Wilfried Nancy's early tenure described as a nightmare start for Celtic after Champions League exit by Kairat Almaty.
