The Taysiders, who have never won at Celtic Park in the competition and their last league victory in the east end of Glasgow was in 2001, looked to be on their way to a historic success when midfielder Ethan Hamilton thundered in his first Dundee goal in the 49th minute of the fifth-round tie. Celtic confirmed the signing of 32-year-old former Arsenal and Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain a couple of hours before kick-off and he was introduced to supporters on the pitch ahead of the game before taking his place in the stand. Adamu, the 24-year-old Austria forward on loan from Freiburg, replaced Cvancara to make his Celtic debut with 10 minutes remaining and he came up with the goods with pretty much the last kick of the game, flicking in a cross from Tounekti to take the game into extra time.
