Celtic all but wrapped up a third straight Scottish Premiership title with victory against 10-player Rangers in a frantic Old Firm clash.
With Brendan Rodgers’ side three points ahead with just three games remaining, Rangers knew they had to win the final league meeting of the season to keep their hopes alive.
The Hoops dominated from kick-off and Matt O’Riley finally broke the deadlock in the 35th minute after they had spurned a number of chances.
John Lundstram turned the ball into his own net immediately after the restart and was then sent off for a dangerous challenge after Cryriel Dessers pulled the visitors back into the match before half-time.
Celtic were awarded a penalty after Mohamed Diomande caught Alistair Johnston in the box. O’Riley stepped up only to be denied by Jack Butland.
Brendan Rodgers’ side should have been out of reach but in the end survived some late pressure to move six points clear with just two games remaining.
