Kleine Nachlese zu McInnes' Besuch. Der Grund für die Feiern war - neben dem Sieg an sich - auch noch anders motiviert, und das haben sich die Dons selbst zuzuschreiben:
Riled Rangers players were fired up to beat Aberdeen after the Dons trolled them with photos of their Betfred Cup semi-final win at Hampden this season.
And that led to the raucous post-match celebrations that prompted Reds gaffer Derek McInnes to complain to the Light Blues management team.
McInnes attempted to enter the away dressing room as he made it known he was unhappy at the excessive noise emanating from the visitors area. McInnes was surprised at how much Steven Gerrard’s stars were whooping it up and blasting music after emerging victorious with 4-2 win in a pulsating Pittodrie clash.
He urged the the Light Blues to tone it down but the Rangers management team insisted they were entitled to lap up the huge victory
that moved them five points clear of the Reds and kept them on the coattails of leaders Celtic.
And Record Sport can reveal that the visitors were motivated after being greeted by pictures of Aberdeen’s 1-0 last-four
League Cup win over the Ibrox side in October.
Dons chiefs replaced pictures of some of their glory days of yesteryear with images of this season’s 1-0 League Cup last-four victory over the Ibrox side.
Rangers players noted the photos placed on the walls of the corridor leading to their dressing room as they entered the stadium.
Auch im Daily Record. Unter uns, wer hängt denn bitte seine "Legenden" ab um sich mit einem Halbfinal-Sieg zu brüsten und es dem Gegner "zu zeigen". Zumal man dann das Finale verloren hat?
