Former Hearts star looking to upset former club with Hamilton in the Scottish Cup
dailyrecord.co.ukFormer Hearts star Dario Zanatta is looking to cause a bit of a stir when his old club visits Hamilton in the Scottish Cup fifth round tonight.Canadian forward Zanatta, 25, helped Accies beat Queen of the South 2-1 on Tuesday to reach the SPFL Trust Trophy final against former club Raith Rovers in March.Zanatta’s looking to do well in two cup competitions this year and though he left Tynecastle on good terms, he’s looking to prove a few people wrong at Hearts.He said: “I’m looking forward to it.“It’s nice to see some familiar faces.
They’re the third-biggest club in Scotland for a reason, they’ve had a really good season.“But we showed against Ross County in the last round that we’re capable of performing against Premiership opposition and we’re definitely looking for an upset on Friday night.“I don’t have hard feelings; I’d like to have played a few more games for them and if I can prove maybe one or two people wrong there that would be nice.“But I’m more worried about just playing well for the team and hopefully we can cause a little bit of a stir.”Zanatta scored his third goal of the season to give Accies the lead against Marvin Bartley’s League One side on Tuesday night and though he feels the game should have been more comfortable, Ryan One bagged an extra-time winner.Having won the final with Raith Rovers last season he hopes to now pip the Kirkcaldy club to the trophy this time around.He said: “It’s another final.
I had a word with Reghan Tumilty, who has just signed and who was at Raith with me last year, so we must be good luck or something to be back in the final.“It’s a boost for the whole club to get to the final.
