(Reuters) - Celtic secured the 100th major trophy of their distinguished history with a 3-0 victory over Aberdeen in the Scottish League Cup final on Sunday as they brushed off the disappointment of their midweek Champions League exit.

Tom Rogic and James Forrest scored before halftime and Moussa Dembele converted a second-half penalty to complete the commanding triumph over the side who have been Celtic's biggest challengers in Scotland over the last two seasons.
