2014 Scottish Cup final
The 2014 Scottish Cup Final was the 129th final of the Scottish Cup, the most prestigious knockout football competition in Scotland. The match took place at Celtic Park on 17 May 2014 and was contested by Dundee United and St Johnstone. The usual venue, Hampden Park, was unavailable because it was being refurbished for the 2014 Commonwealth Games. As of 2024, the 2014 final was the last to be played away from Hampden.
After winning the game 2–0, St Johnstone entered the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League in the Second Qualifying Round.
St. Johnstone entered the competition in the Fourth round. They began their campaign against Livingston at McDiarmid Park. Stevie May and Sanel Jahić scored the goals that sealed the Saints' passage into the next round. St Johnstone then took on Forfar Athletic in Forfar, winning 4–0, courtesy of goals from May, Frazer Wright, Michael O'Halloran and James Dunne.
In the quarter-final St Johnstone were drawn away again, against Raith Rovers. Goals from Gary McDonald, Nigel Hasselbaink and Steven Anderson sealed a 3–1 victory.
In the semi-final at Ibrox on 13 April, St Johnstone faced Aberdeen. A double from May ended Saints semi-final hoodoo and sent St Johnstone to their first-ever Scottish Cup final.
Dundee United entered the competition in the Fourth round. They began their campaign against Kilmarnock at Tannadice. Andrew Robertson scored twice, with goals from Stuart Armstrong, Brian Graham and Gary Mackay-Steven sealing the Terrors' passage into the next round. Dundee United then took on St Mirren. United won 2–1, courtesy of goals from Ryan Gauld and Nadir Çiftçi.
In the quarter-final Dundee United were drawn against Inverness CT. Çiftçi scored twice, with goals from Gavin Gunning, Mackay-Steven and Armstrong sealing a 5–0 victory. In the semi-final at Ibrox on 12 April, Dundee United faced Rangers. Goals from Armstrong, Mackay-Steven and Çiftçi sent Dundee United to the final for the first time since 2010.
This was St Johnstone's first appearance in the Scottish Cup Final, while it was Dundee United's tenth appearance. United had previously won two Scottish Cups (in 1994 and 2010), and have been beaten in seven finals. The most notable meeting of the two clubs in the Scottish Cup until now was in the 1990–91 Scottish Cup, when Dundee United won 2–1 in a semi-final at East End Park and advanced to the 1991 Scottish Cup Final.
