O'Neill's squad featured established players including Henrik Larsson's former strike partner Chris Sutton, John Hartson, Stiliyan Petrov, Neil Lennon, Alan Thompson and goalkeeper Rab Douglas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe departure of Larsson to Barcelona during the summer of 2004 marked a significant change for Celtic, bringing an end to the Swedish striker's remarkable seven-year spell at the club. Hartson subsequently became the team's leading attacking figure, finishing as the Scottish Premier League's top scorer with 25 goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCeltic remained in contention for the league championship throughout the campaign, with the title race against Old Firm rivals Rangers extending to the final day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeading into their final fixture against Motherwell, Celtic knew victory would secure another championship. The Bhoys led 1–0 heading into the closing minutes, but two late goals from Scott McDonald turned the match around and condemned Celtic to a 2–1 defeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRangers' victory over Hibernian meant Celtic finished second with 92 points, one behind their Glasgow rivals. The dramatic conclusion became one of the most memorable final-day title races in Scottish football history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust days later, O'Neill announced that he would leave Celtic at the end of the season for family reasons, bringing his successful five-year tenure to a close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis final match came against Dundee United in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park. An early goal from Alan Thompson secured a 1–0 victory, delivering Celtic's 33rd Scottish Cup and allowing O'Neill to depart with another major trophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced by Umbro, the 2004\/05 away shirt featured a distinctive bottle-green design with contrasting silver detailing, complemented by the Carling sponsor. One of the final Celtic shirts produced during the club's long-standing partnership with Umbro, it represents O'Neill's final campaign and the conclusion of a memorable era in the club's history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 0, 255);\"\u003ePIT TO PIT - 55cm \/\/\/ COLLAR TO HEM - 72cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Soccer Archive","offers":[{"title":"L \/ Dark Green","offer_id":53162373349663,"sku":"4\/10-1VLOQU","price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/3508\/5343\/files\/CELTIC_2004-05_AWAY_SHIRT_-_LARSSON_7.png?v=1793274616","url":"https:\/\/thesoccerarchive.com\/ja\/products\/celtic-2004-05-away-shirt-larsson-7-l","provider":"The Soccer Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
