90+2 min: Oh no, Ryan Kent saw glory and could only swing at fresh air. That was the one, perhaps. Instead, a foul on Barasic allows Rangers chance to get the ball into the box. But it’s cleared by Carter-Vickers.
90 min: Barasic goes on the overlap as Rangers seek a late, famous winner. Four minutes to be added on. Celtic, looking the more tired, are hanging on a bit here.
89 min: Scott Wright and Arfield attempt to find a way through but Celtic find a way to clear before Davis comes on to a Kent pass and smashes over.
87 min: Maeda and Kyogo looking for opportunities up front, and from Jota’s cross Kyogo heads down and wide.
85 min: Rangers look likelier though Joe Hart claims a Tavernier cross after Kent skips past Ralston. Then Goldson goes down, and looks to be in pain, and it seems a case of cramp.
83 min: Arfield has the ball in the net once more, but only after an offside flag had correctly caught out Ryan Kent.
82 min: Now, who has the nerve in this last ten minutes? It’s getting scrappy. Though Goldson’s passing from the back is beginning to open up space in the Celtic defence.
80 min: Tavernier and Goldson were the suppliers of that goal but Arfield’s finish was expert, and Gio’s substitutions had the desired effect. Anyone’s game now, and McGregor, the masked man, smashed one from distance.
Goal! Celtic 1-1 Rangers (Arfield, 79)
Rangers really struggling to find their way back, though will surely get another chance or two…and sure enough they do. Arfield, coming off the left, comes on to a ball from Tavernier and whips it beyond Hart. Great finish from the sub. Game on.
76 min: Joe Hart comes out to control the ball well out of his box. Calls for a handball, and denied. It wasn’t though what Hart was doing out there may well be questioned.
75 min: Rangers make a couple of changes. Aribo off, Arfield on. Ryan Jack off, and Steven Davis comes on to make things interesting.
73 min: Goldson is booked for fouling Kyogo as the magic man seeks to pass the ball. Who will hit the free-kick from the edge of the box? Jota smashes off the top of the wall and behind.
71 min: Lundstram has a shot from distance, and it’s nowhere near as good as his first-half effort against the post.
70 min: Rangers have been given a lifeline by that Carter-Vickers miss, now can they live again?
68 min: Celtic having most of the ball now. Rangers perhaps feeling the fatigue from Thursday….and Carter-Vickers from a knockdown, wallops the ball against the bar. Right from six yards out, he smashed it with his left. It has to go down as a bad, bad miss.
66 min: Celtic, having taken the lead, suffer a blow as Juranovic gets hurt, and on comes Ralston for him. Van Bronckhorsy does not look amused on the sidelines.
Goal! Celtic 1-0 Rangers (Taylor, 64)
Well well. Celtic take a quick free-kick, and and Taylor sees a chance to shoot and it comes off Bassey and beyond McLaughlin. The ball bounced all over the show there, and Celtic took advantage. The treble is on on on on.
63 min: This time Lundstram escapes a booking for a combine harvester foul on McGregor. Bobby Madden, the referee, may want to cancel his plans for a driving his sponsored car with his name emblazoned on the side around the East End. If he was planning it, that is.
61 min: Nice run by Wright but falls over as Rangers threaten to attack. Celtic have been the better team for a few minutes….
