Ambrose Becomes Double Champion

By Arinze Ude

Super Eagles defender Efe Ambrose helped Celtic win the Scottish Cup with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Hibernian on Sunday. Striker, Gary Hooper grabbed a brace in the first half to help the Scottish giants lift yet another Scottish Cup at the expense of Hibernian in a final played at Hamped Park. The victory secured a domestic double for Ambrose and his Celtic team mates. Celtic won the Scottish premier league comfortably after their main Glaswegian rivals, Rangers FC were demoted to the third division for going into administration. Ambrose was thrown into the game in the 81st minute in place of Celtic captain, Scott Brown by Celtic coach, Neil Lennon. Efe is one of the defenders pencilled down by Stephen Keshi for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers and Confederations Cup matches.
