Penalty hero Tomas Cvancara joined his team-mates for a night out in Glasgow as Celtic celebrated their dramatic Scottish Cup Old Firm win.
Ice-cool Cvancara sent the Hoops through to next month’s semi-final at Hampden by slotting home the decisive penalty from a nervy shootout at Ibrox.
But the jubilant scenes soon turned ugly as both sets of supporters clashed in a violent pitch invasion – forcing Celtic and Rangers players to quickly dash down the tunnel for their safety.
Cvancara – on loan from Borussia Monchengladbach – was later spotted with blood splattered on his green and white jersey during a post-match interview with Premier Sports.
And while the towering frontman didn’t get his moment in front of the full Broomloan Stand at full-time, Cvancara drank it in with his Parkhead pals at a popular city nightspot on Sunday night.
Martin O’Neill’s men were spotted partying inside Glasgow’s Wunderbar – with cult hero Julian Araujo filmed hanging from a duct.
Czech star Cvancara was also captured laughing and flaunting an X-rated taunt on his phone, reading: “F*** Rangers!”

The Rangers anthem has been adopted by Hoops fans since the Parkhead side overtook their rivals’ trophy haul last season.
