Celtic head to the final v St Mirren next month, winning 3-1 in the end. Martin O'Neill on track for a trophy within weeks of stepping in after Rodgers quit.
BFC Dynamo (aka Dynamo Berlin) 2 Carl Zeiss Jena 3 Dynamo are the old Stasi sponsored East German team who won their championship 10 years in a row. In 1979/80 they beat Forest in Nottingham in the quarter finals of the European Cup. Lost at home and of course Forest went on to win it. They now play in German tier 4 and were well beaten in front of about 4k fans tonight in an old stadium way out in East Berlin. Bottle shop 100 metres from the ground sells excellent bottles of Berlin Kindl beer for €1.5 each. Great Jena fans (have seen and admired them playing at home just before Covid lockdown) sang the whole game except for first seven minutes silence for a deceased comrade. A long trip for them (I’d guess 800 or so) on a Friday night. Great fun with the expected high quality low cost beer and sausage in the ground. Tomorrow a trip to the Polish border for Energie Cottbus v Osnabruck in tier 3.
