Paulo Bernardo’s Thanks to the Celtic Support as he ‘Relaxes’ After Semi-Final

Celtic triumphed in a nerve-wracking Scottish Cup semi-final against Aberdeen, clinching their place in the final through a penalty shootout after a dramatic 3-3 draw in extra time.

The penalty shootout was tense, with Celtic players Adam Idah, Luis Palma, Paulo Bernardo, O’Riley, Johnston, and Tomoki Iwata all successfully converting their shots. Celtic’s goalkeeper, Joe Hart, turned hero by saving Aberdeen’s final penalty, taken by loanee Killian Phillips, securing Celtic’s progression to the final.

The emotional rollercoaster of the match was captured in an Instagram post by Celtic’s Paulo Bernardo, who expressed his relief and joy at advancing to the final. “Tough Game today but we did it! Can’t thank enough for all the support we’ve received. See you at the final,” he posted, sharing his excitement with fans and teaMMAtes.
