I have purchased the match today, £7.49 from RTV and will not be posting a stream link.

 

Rangers doing it the hard way, but doing it. The tactical discipline Rangers showed after losing Morelos and especially after losing Flanagan to Red Cards (both 2nd Yellows) was superb. My MOTM was Ejaria ... what a talent there. We are through to the Group stage, the draw is tomorrow. Crisis ... what Crisis ?
I will update all the scores in this post.

SPL (SPFL1), Sunday 02/09/2018 : Celtic 1-0 Rangers

I had to rely on the SSN Live commentary and for the 2nd half radio to follow this, so can give no 'match report'.
So, without seeing any of the action, I can only summarise it for Rangers as defeated, but not disgraced.
