Celtic Wins Scottish Cup Final 1-0
A late goal by Jean-Joel Perrier-Doumbe, who goes by Joe, won it for them in what was only his fifth appearance for the Glasgow club (he's on loan). Sounds like a great young fellow who works really hard in practice.

It was his first goal ever. What a time to get it!

3. How about the whole song, two gun sid
The Fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
"Michael, they have taken you away,
For you stole Trevelyan's corn,
So the young might see the morn.
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay."

Chorus:
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
"Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown,
I rebelled, they cut me down.
Now you must raise our child with dignity."

By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star fall
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived to hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

Well done, Glasgow Celtic. Mr. Wonderful's been a fan for well over 50 years.
