    GOAL Celtic 1-0 Rangerspublished at 64 mins

    Greg Taylor

    Rangers are caught napping at a free-kick, which is played out to Callum McGregor and the Celtic captain slides in a pass to Greg Taylor after shaping to shoot.

    Taylor does have a crack and his effort clips defender Calvin Bassey and the deflection takes the ball away from Jon McLaughlin and into the corner of the net.

    Calvin Bassey is in the thick of it again, this time somehow avoiding a booking for catching the heels of Tom Rogic with an overly robust challenge.

    Celtic 0-0 Rangers

    Calvin Bassey gets caught dithering on the ball but recovers to fend off Daizen Maeda. Seconds later, Bassey is found wanting again, allowing Maeda to slip a pass to Reo Hatate, who sends an angled shot wide of the far post.

    Roofe is a lucky man to be on the pitch. Everybody knew what he was going to do, the referee knew it too. He's lucky it's just a yellow card because Maeda was gone. He comes from behind and takes him down.

    Celtic striker Daizen Maeda sets off on a run near halfway but doesn't get very far as Kemar Roofe slides in with an ugly hack.

    Rangers are on the front foot straight away as Kemar Roofe fails to steer a Borna Barisic cross on target. The striker couldn't get any power or direction on the lofted delivery.

    The fact that it's 0-0 is a bit of a triumph for Celtic. You have to take your hat off to Rangers, given the exertions of Thursday night. The game has been played to their tempo. They're up for a fight, up for a battle. They've nullified the Celtic threat almost completely.

    I think Celtic have struggled throughout. Tactically, Rangers have been superb. Every time it goes to a Celtic player, Rangers are all over them. They're playing a high line at the back and they are hunting down the Celtic players.

  15. Will Celtic look to Kyogo?published at 14:54 British Summer Time 17 April 2022

    HT: Celtic 0-0 Rangers

    Celtic have not really been at it so far, with Rangers goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin a virtual spectator.

    Will Ange Postecoglou be thinking about bringing Kyogo Furuhashi on for the second half?

  16. HALF-TIME Celtic 0-0 Rangerspublished at 45+1 mins

    A breathless first-half comes to a close with Joe Aribo glancing an unconvincing header wide from Scott Wright's cross.

    Rangers have been on top and went closest to a goal when John Lundstram cracked the post with a sweetly-hit shot.

    Kemar Roofe had earlier threatened with a drilled effort that flew just wide.

    Aaron Ramsey knew his afternoon was done as soon as he hit the deck. It's a shame for the Wales midfielder as he's had a good game.

    Can Scott Wright make the same impact?

    Aaron Ramsey has come off worse in that tangle with Cameron Carter-Vickers and the on-loan Rangers midfielder can't continue.

    Scott Wright replaces the man from Juventus.

    This game has been exceptional in terms of the pace it's played at. Joe Hart's just not getting John Lundstram's shot. Then Celtic just go and attack Rangers.
