In 1877 Rangers reached a Scottish Cup final; after drawing the first game, Rangers refused to turn up for the replay and the cup was awarded to Vale of Leven. Rangers won the Glasgow Merchants Charity Cup the following year against Vale of Leven 2-1, their first major cup. The first-ever Old Firm match took place in 1888, the year of Celtics establishment. Rangers lost 5-2 in a friendly to a team composed largely of guest players from Hibernian.
