Celtic: Fans celebrate invincible treble secured three years ago

A lot of the Celtic fanbase are reminiscing over their incredible Invincible Treble in 2016/17, after the club posted a video of the game which completed the treble in dramatic fashion thanks to a last minute Tom Rogic winner in the cup final.

The Hoops were managed by Brendan Rodgers at the time, who ranks as the fourth best manager in their history if you look at win percentages, as he managed a 69.82% win record having won 118 out of 169 games, via fitbastats.

His two and a half seasons will go down in history as he won five domestic cups and the league twice. He also managed to complete the double treble whilst he was in charge, per Transfermarkt, and broke the 100-year-old British unbeaten domestic record with a 69-game unbeaten run, per BBC Sport.

After securing the League Cup and the league without losing a single match in 2016/17, they had the Scottish Cup final against Aberdeen to make history, via thecelticstar, but they did it the hard way as they went 1-0 down in the first half. They managed to equalise thanks a goal from Stuart Armstrong before eventually winning the final thanks to Rogic. This last gasp winner caused absolute chaos in the away end and capped off a remarkable season for the Celts.

Naturally loads of Celtic fans were buzzing upon seeing the club’s post on the historic achievement, here is what some had to say following the tweet:

When the day starts, you hope Celtic cruise to a comfortable victory to complete an unprecedented season.

2 hours later, you wouldn’t have had it end any other way.
