    Celtic have started on the front foot, what a strike from David Turnbull. He forces McGregor to produce a big-hand, a big-save.

    Rangers 2-0 Celtic

    Celtic skipper Scott Brown is the first player to be cautioned and it's a harsh booking since he timed a sliding tackle on Ryan Kent to perfection.

  3. GREAT SAVE!published at 46 mins

    Rangers 2-0 Celtic

    Celtic come haring out of the blocks and David Turnbull thunders in a shot from 22 yards. Allan McGregor is at full-stretch to push it away.

    Rangers have had a terrific attitude about them. They've been excellent. They've shown an accuracy and ruthlessness that Celtic just don't have.

  7. Tall order for Celticpublished at 15:54 British Summer Time 18 April 2021

    HT: Rangers 2-0 Celtic

    So, Celtic need at least two to take this to extra-time.

    A reminder that Rangers have conceded just three goals in 18-and-a-half domestic games this season.

  8. HALF-TIME Rangers 2-0 Celticpublished at 45 mins

    Rangers go into the interval in a very strong position.

    Steven Davis conjured up a lovely overhead finish and Jonjoe Kenny knocked in an own goal after good work from Joe Aribo.

    Celtic spurned a glorious chance to level when Stephen Welsh failed to knock home from close range.

    Patterson's been excellent today. He's improving game by game and showing a real maturity. On performances he should have a real shout of getting in the Scotland squad.

  10. Postpublished at 43 mins

    Rangers 2-0 Celtic

    As half time approaches, Celtic look a bit stunned. The official stats show Rangers have had one shot on target and they lead by two goals.

    Own goals obviously don't count in that area.

    Celtic frailties on show again. Laxalt misses the tackle and is beaten so easily. Aribo then has the time and space to deliver his ball in perfectly

    Aribo is the architect again and that's what you want from your wide man, to get get across his marker.

    GOAL Rangers 2-0 Celticpublished at 34 mins

    Jonjoe Kenny O.G

    Joe Aribo dances past Diego Laxalt and then cleverly delays his cross before firing the ball into the near post, where Ryan Kent applies the finish.

    Or does he? On second viewing, it looks like the touch actually came from defender Jonjoe Kenny.

    It's a superb run. Laxalt again allows Patterson down on the inside and he can't get a tackle in. Perhaps he should've pulled it back, but what a run from the young man

  15. Postpublished at 29 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Celtic

    Nathan Patterson looks in the mood as he thrusts forward on a strong run, taking him past three Celtic players, before thundering a shot high into the side-netting.

    Rangers need to get possession of the ball. Since the opening goal they've had no control of the game.

    Stephen Welsh has his hands on his head after that latest opportunity for Celtic, they're getting a few now. What a moment from the young man to nearly make his mark

  18. Welsh misses a sitter!published at 24 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Celtic

    It should be 1-1. Celtic defender Stephen Welsh throws himself at a low cross right in front of goal and somehow steers the ball away from goal with his outstretched boot.

    Kris Ajer is first to the loose ball and his deflected shot is stopped near the line by Filip Helander, who keeps a cool head to thump it clear.

  19. CLOSE!published at 23 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Celtic

    Now it's Callum McGregor has a go as he drives forward and hammers a shot just wide.

  20. Celtic begin to threatenpublished at 21 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Celtic

    Better from Odsonne Edouard this time as he shifts the ball on to his right foot in a busy penalty area and fires a fierce shot straight at Allan McGregor.

    Moments later, Celtic come again and Ryan Christie drags an effort wide from 18 yards.
