FORMER Celtic manager Neil Lennon is on the brink of glory in Cyprus as he guided his Omonia Nicosia side to the Cypriot Cup final tonight.
Lennon has been in charge of the team for just two-months.
They defeated Anorthosis Famagusta 3-1 on aggregate to fire them into the end of season cup showpiece event.
Omonia were 2-0 from the first leg last week, with this evening's game finishing 1-1 at the GSP Stadium.
Adam Lang gave Omonia the lead after just six-minutes.
However, a matter of moments later, the home side were down to ten-men, as Hector Luste was given his marching orders.
Anorthosis then equalised through Amr Warda in the 23rd minute.
But Lennon's men stood firm, to book their slot in the final on Wednesday, May 25, where they will face Ethnikos.
