HOW THEY PLAYED
JOE HART (6 OUT OF 10)
Has established himself as an integral part of the Celtic team but had an unusually quiet day for an Old Firm game, with a couple of decent saves in the closing stages.
JOSIP JURANOVIC (7)
The right-back got some good crosses in and forced Rangers back toward their own goal with his propensity to drive forward.
CAMERON CARTER-VICKERS (8)
Strong and composed in defence, terrific in the air as usual and coped well with what little Rangers threat there was for most of the game.
CARL STARFELT (6)
Had a couple of slack moments before going off injured early in the second half. (Sub. 57 MORITZ JENZ (7) Barely tested on Old Firm debut).
GREG TAYLOR (7)
The former Kilmarnock man has begun to win over the Celtic faithful this season and had another solid performance at left-back, setting up Abada for his second goal.
CALLUM MCGREGOR (8)
The Hoops skipper drives on the champions on a weekly basis and controlled the tempo in a commanding Celtic performance.
REO HATATE (7)
The mobile Japanese midfielder got himself around the pitch, was industrious as usual and impressed with his distribution. (Sub. 73 AARON MOY (7). Added steel to the midfield).
MATT O’RILEY (8)
Has shown himself to be an accomplished midfielder with good positioning and clever passing and Rangers found him a constant threat. (Sub. 72 DAVID TURNBULL (7) Gifted a goal by Jon McLaughlin).
JOTA (8)
The Portuguese winger is a huge favourite with the Celtic fans and again thrilled, glossing his performance with a fantastic finish to make it 2-0.
KYOGO FURUHASHI (5)
A hero to the Celtic supporters, the prolific Japan striker had to go off injured early in the contest. (Sub. 5 GIORGOS GIAKOUMAKIS (7) Kept the Gers defence occupied.
LIEL ABADA (8)
The speedy Israeli winger scored a double from a poaching position. (Sub. 73 DAIZEN MAEDA (7). Busy as always).
