  1. Abada 'top drawer' - McGregorpublished at 14:44 British Summer Time 3 September 2022

    FT: Celtic 4-0 Rangers

    On Liel Abada's performance in the 4-0 win over Rangers, Celtic captain Callum McGregor says the Israeli winger delivered a "top drawer" performance.

    "He gets his goals and he's always a threat," McGregor tells Sky Sports. "On the big occasion, he makes his mark."

    On the marker it sets for the rest of the league, McGregor adds: "It shows everyone what we're all about. There are a lot of games to be played, but we wanted to show what kind of team we are at home."

    County manager Malky Mackay welcomes back defender Jack Baldwin and midfielder Ross Callachan from suspension and names both in his starting line-up.

    There are four further changes for County from their midweek defeat by Celtic, including starts for midfielder Yan Dhanda and striker Jordy Hiwula.

    For the visitors, Jim Goodwin makes three alterations to the side that beat Annan Athletic 4-1 in the League Cup. Jack McKenzie, Shaydon Morris and Matty Kennedy all drop out and are replaced with wing-back Johnny Hayes, midfielder Leighton Clarkson and defender Hayden Coulson.

    It is the same side that beat Livingston 5-0 in the league last Saturday.

    Hearts also announced the signing of goalkeeper Zander Clark on Friday evening, but Ross Stewart is on the bench with captain Craig Gordon starting.

    Midfielder Jorge Grant and defender Stephen Kingsley are available again and both start, with Gary Mackay-Steven and Toby Sibbick also recalled to the first XI.

    Michael Smith, Alan Forrest, Peter Haring, Josh Ginnelly and Lawrence Shankland all drop to the bench.

    Rangers have quality players, no doubt, but they don't have that same energy as Celtic. They need to try find another way to get positive results against them.

    Celtic 4-0 Rangers

    Remember, Celtic lost top scorer Kyogo Furuhashi inside the first few minutes.

    It didn't make the slightest difference as they shredded Rangers with their non-stop running and slick passing.

    Talking of Kyogo, he's just fallen flat on his face celebrating on the pitch, with his damaged arm in a sling inside his jacket. That won't do his chances of facing Real Madrid on Tuesday any good. He's up and smiling though...

    With full-time almost upon us, the game is still rollicking on at a fair rate of knots.

    Connor Goldson aims a header on target from a free-kick, allowing Joe Hart to make a flashy diving save. The Celtic keeper hasn't had a whole lot to do today.

    That goal has energised the players, it's energised the whole stadium. The noise level has gone up tenfold. Celtic will be looking to put Rangers to the sword in the final 10 minutes. The game is over as a contest, but what is the score going to be?
