Sportklub Rapid Wien
vs. The Celtic Football Club-Glasgow, 1984
Rapid Vienna and Celtic
were paired in the Second Round of the 1984/85 Cup Winners Cup.
The Austrian side Rapid
Vienna were managed by Croatian (then Yugoslav) Otto Baric. They had won the Austrian
Cup in 1984 at the expense of League Champions and rivals FK Austria.The side was
led by veteran Hans Krankl, the returning hero, and Czech midfielder Antonin
Panenka.
The side also contained the likes of Leo Lainer, Heribert
Weber, Johann Pregesbauer, Reinhard Kienast and Gerald
Willfurth.
The main losses had been that of Max Hagmayr and
Christian Keglevits to LASK and Wiener SC respectively.
The arrivals included Johann Gröss (LASK) and
Peter Pacult (Wiener SC).
Celtic Glasgow were
managed by David Hay, a former player of the club from the 60s and 70s.
The side included Irish
goalkeeper Packie Bonner, captain Danny McGrain, Roy Aitken, Murdo McLeod,
Brian McClair and Tommy Burns.
The up and coming and
players of the team included midfielders Paul McStay and Peter Grant.
They had lost the 1984
Scottish Cup Final to Aberdeen, but since Aberdeen as Double winners had won
the League title, Celtic gained entry to the Cup Winners Cup.
Celtic’s
main reinforcement was striker Alan McInally coming from Ayr United.
Maurice
Johnston arrived from Watford in October, but too late to be eligible for
Europe.
No one
could foresee that this tie would become one of the most controversial match-ups
in European Cups History.
In the
previous Round, Celtic had eliminated Belgian side Gent, (0-1 loss away, 3-0
home win).
Rapid
had eliminated Turkish side Besiktas, (4-1 home win, 1-1 away).
The first leg, on October
24th, was played at Vienna’s Gerhard Hanappi-Stadion.
Celtic were missing the
injured Tommy Burns.
As the home team Rapid
was on the offensive against the visiting Celtic side.
As a precursor to the
impending disturbances in the return leg, Rapid’s Kienast’s early aggressive
foul on McGarvey forced his early substitution by McInally in the 35th
minute.
Rapid would break the
deadlock in the second half. In the 53rd minute, Peter Pacult went on a
long solo run on the right side and from a narrow angle struck a hard shot past
Feurer.
Just minutes later, in
the 56th minute, Celtic tied the match. At the edge of the box on
the left side, McInally passed across to McClair, who struck the equalizer.
In the 66th
minute, Rapid took the lead once more. Panenka’s free kick from the right side
was headed in by Lainer.
Celtic substitute Alan
McInally was sent off in the 74th minute to further hamper the
Scottish side.
Rapid scored an important
third goal near the end in the 87th minute. Krankl received a
backheel pass at the edge of the box and dribbled his way into the box to
score.
This was a commanding
lead but Celtic could not be counted out playing at home.

The second leg, on November
7th, was played at Glasgow’s Celtic Park. Celtic had to win at
least (2-0) to advance. After his sending off in the first leg Alan McInally
was suspended. Celtic Captain Danny McGrain was also suspended as he had been
booked against Gent in the earlier round, and booked again vs. Rapid in the
first leg.
Celtic made two changes in their lineup from the previous
match. In addition to McGrain, Mark Reid was also left out. In their place, Tom
McAdam and Tommy Burns came back in the squad.
Rapid also made two changes. The starting
goalkeeper Herbert
Feurer and Antonin Panenka made way for Karl Ehn and Kurt
Garger.
Celtic did all the attacking and were rewarded
in the 33rd minute when McClair struck in Provan’s cross from the
right.
They scored the second goal just before halftime
through Murdo McLeod’s volley.
At this point, Celtic had qualified but pressed
on in the second half.
In the 68th minute, they scored the
third goal that was disputed by Rapid. From the left side,
McGarvey sent Burns through, Rapid goalkeeper Karl Ehn handled the ball, but Burns slid in and
knocked it out of his hands and into the goal.
Rapid players protested and felt some injustice as
they felt Ehn had the ball in his hands before Burns had kicked it out of his
hands.
This anger would lead to the unrest at the end
of the match. Just a few minutes after this goal, away from the action, Rapid’s
Reinhard Kienast swung a punch at
the back of Burns’ head in the penalty box. The feeling was he was exacting
revenge for what had happened to Ehn.
The Referee did not see the action, however, the linesman
did see and notified the Referee, who then sent off Kienast. (Strangely, the
referee did not award a penalty kick).
Later, Ehn himself kicked Burns in the box,
which led a penalty kick to be awarded for Celtic. Naturally, this led to
protests from the Rapid players, who already felt injustice because of the
circumstances of the third goal and the Kienast sending off.
Krankl and Baric even persuaded the team to walk
off in protest but were dissuaded by UEFA observers.
Protests ensued to such a point that it took up
to fifteen minutes for the match to re-start.
In the end, Peter Grant missed the penalty kick.
The most dramatic event of the day, however,
involved Rapid’s Rudolf Weinhofer.
In the 80th minute, bottles and/or
objects were thrown on the field by Celtic supporters. One of these objects struck
Weinhofer’s head and he was stretchered off (leaving Rapid with nine men on the
field).
The match ended and Celtic had seemingly
qualified. This was only the beginning of the drama on and off the field that
would follow.

Winners Cup, Celtic Glasgow 3-Rapid Wien 0) |
Rapid immediately appealed to UEFA to overturn
the match result, claiming Weinhofer had been hit by a bottle.
On November 16th,
1984, UEFA disciplinary commission presided by Italian Alberto Barbe determined
that they could not ascertain whether bottle thrown had struck Weinhofer
(following the report submitted by the Swedish refereeing trio).
UEFA did confirm that in
80th minute, two bottles were thrown on the field.
They also handed out four
match suspension for Reinhard Kienast and Three match suspension for Rapid
Manager Otto Baric.
Additionally, Rapid was
blamed for the behavior of its officials and the yellow cards of Zlatko
Kranjcar, Karl Ehn and Peter Brucic were also confirmed.
Celtic were fined 12,000
Swiss Francs for crowd behavior (£4,000) and
Rapid were fined £5,000.
After these findings,
Rapid appealed yet again. This UEFA Committee was presided by a Dutch, a Swede
and a Romanian.
On November 23rd,
1984, this Committee confirmed Rapid’s version of events. According to this
report, Weinhofer had not been hit by a bottle but by a missile or coins and
had to leave the field because of head trauma (The Austrians had changed their
account from being hit by a bottle to objects/coins).
The result was to be
expunged from the record and a replay was ordered either on December 11 or 12
to be played at least 150 km from Glasgow.
Celtic were also fined
50,000 French Francs for the bottles thrown.
They also doubled Rapid’s
fine to £10,000 and confirmed the other
penalties.
Celtic Director Chris
White stated that this decision was ridiculous by anyone who had seen this
match. His father Celtic President Desmond White, who had traveled to Zurich in
defense of the club, stated, “a simple bottle could destroy a club and this
should serve as a warning to fans”.
Most Scottish observers
believed they had been cheated by UEFA.
Many in Scotland
believed, Weinhofer had been play-acting and had actually not been hit by an
object / bottles.
It was reported that
Rapid had refused to allow a local doctor to examine him and only allowed their
own doctor to attend to him.
Allegedly, an ambulance
driver confirmed that Weinhofer didn’t even have a scratch.
On BBC Radio, Former
Scottish International and Celtic star Pat Crerand advocated for all British
clubs to withdraw from European Competitions in solidarity with Celtic for this
decision.
The Scottish also blamed
the Austrian Press for reporting that missiles of bottles had been thrown
whereas it was only two.
Wolfgang Winheim, a
reporter with Wiener Kurier, confirmed to World Soccer’s Arthur Rotmil, that
Weinhofer had been hit by an object, other Austrian journalists also told him
that he required two stiches on his head wound.
Following, the decision
to replay, Celtic President Desmond White said, “I was completely flabbergasted
when I heard that”.
Celtic officials were also
furious that the UEFA Committee refused to view Television evidence nor hear accounts
of Scottish Medical Staff.
For the replay, Celtic
chose to play in England, in Manchester at Old
Trafford on December 12th, 1984.
Celtic only
made one change from the previous match. Danny McGrain was back skippering the
side in place of Willie McStay.
For Rapid, Herbert Feurer was back in goal in place of Karl Ehn. In addition, Rapid were missing through injury
and suspension the likes of Kienast, Pregesbauer, Krankl and Panenka.
Rudolf Weinhofer: Gerald
Willfurth and Johann Gröss came in to deputize.
This match would be
settled by one goal. In the 17th minute, Aitken struck the bar in a
Celtic attack, and in the ensuing action, in a breakaway, Pacult was sent
through on his own, he dribbled past Bonner and scored the winner.
This demoralized Celtic
and they were hardly the side they were on the November 7th matchup.
Celtic were eliminated
and Rapid were through under controversial circumstances after having been
eliminated.
Just like the previous
match more disturbances and disorder followed. Bottles were thrown and two
Rapid players were attacked.
In the 63rd
minute, Rapid goalkeeper Herbert Feurer was attacked by 31-year-old John Tobin,
before the Police intervened. According to Feurer, Tobin said ‘I am going to
kill you’.
Later, the goalscorer Peter
Pacult was kicked in the groin by Hugh Honeyman. Pacult declined to file a
formal complaint.
Former Celtic Manager Billy
McNeill was in the audience and was dismayed of the crowd trouble. He stated
that he was a very disappointed man and felt in the future, someone would be liable
to come on the pitch with a knife or a bottle.

All in all there was
scandal all around for this match-up. There was the perceived manipulation and
foul play of Rapid (according to Celtic fans) vs. the behavior of Celtic fans.
There was plenty of
criticism for UEFA’s handling of the situation.
In World Soccer, Keir
Radnedge felt that if there was ever a time a replay should have been played
behind closed doors it was this.
As far as Brian
Glanville, in the same magazine, this episode emphasized UEFA’s inadequacy in regulations
and their procedures.
He referenced that
according to Celtic President Desmond White, Rapid were allowed to change their
deposition as much as three times.
According to Glanville, David
hay also told him that ambulance drivers told him that Weinhofer had no marks
on him.
According to the Austrian
Press Justice was served with the decision for the replay. They were additionally
dismayed by Scottish Press reports of Austrian cheating.
They rejected the idea
that Weinhofer had play-acted.
According to them,
medical examinations proved that he had been hit by an object and could not
continue to play.
They also praised the
young players deputizing for injured regulars like Krankl, Panenka, Pregesbauer
and the suspended Kienast.
Swedish Referee Kjell
Johannssen was called out for his handling of the November 7th
match. The Austrian critics felt he had been too lenient with the dangerous tackles
of the Scottish. They felt Peter Grant should have been sent off for trampling
on Brucic, and Burns could have been sent off for his challenge on Ehn on the
goal that eventually led to all the subsequent trouble.
Celtic would go on and finish behind Aberdeen in the League
once more but did manage to win the Scottish Cup at the end of the season.
Rapid would advance in the competition and eliminate Dynamo
Dresden (0-3 away, 5-0 at home) in the Quarterfinals and Dynamo Moscow (3-1
home, 1-1 away) in the Semifinals. They advanced to the Final of the
Competition but were defeated by English side Everton (1-3) in Rotterdam.
In the League, just like the previous season they finished
behind FK Austria in the League but did win the Austrian Cup at their expense.
Six months later, there
would be Heysel………
