2000 Scottish Cup final, Rangers v Aberdeen

Two minutes into the Scottish Cup final in 2000, Aberdeen’s goalkeeper Jim Leighton collided with Rangers’ Rod Wallace, fracturing his jaw and requiring stretcher removal.

Despite Leighton’s prior warning, manager Ebbe Skovdahl had not included a backup goalkeeper among the three substitutes.

Robbie Winters, a named substitute who had previously offered to play in goal if needed, replaced Leighton, wearing the oversized jersey of reserve goalkeeper Ryan Esson, who had changed into his suit after warming up Leighton and taken a seat in the stands.

In the 35th minute, Rangers took the lead when Giovanni van Bronckhorst scored from Jorg Albertz’s free kick past Winters.

Leading 1–0 at halftime, Rangers dominated the second half with goals from Tony Vidmar, Billy Dodds, and Albertz, securing a 4–0 victory.

This triumph marked Rangers’ 29th Scottish Cup win and made them the first club globally to reach 100 major trophies.
