    Celtic will want to score more goals but first and foremost they will want to get back to dominating the ball. Rangers have had chances in the last 10 minutes.

    How bad is this going to get for Rangers?

    Even Craig Gordon is getting in on the act with three superb saves to the delight of the Celtic support.

    This might end up a horror story if it isn’t already.

    The Ibrox side have been utterly exposed.

    That's an incredible miss from Morelos, although Celtic are creating their own problems. They should've defended the cross better. Slackness is the only thing that's going to cost Celtic goals in this game.

    Incredible scenes. Craig Gordon denies Alfredo Morelos for a third time after Mikael Lustig's It's A Knockout-style sclaffed comedy clearance comes back off the bar and into the Colombian's path.

    Morelos appeared slow to react and will be disappointed he didn't bury that chance. The Celtic keeper is proving the scourge of the Rangers striker.

    It's a critical goal and what a cheeky little chip to finish from Dembele. He almost strolled up to the ball, let Foderingham make his move and then he goes.
