Celtic serve Rangers derby day breakfast, thrash Gers to go 5 points clear

Scottish champion Celtic served a derby day masterclass to see off rivals Rangers in the Old Firm derby on Saturday.

Celtic was too hot to handle after Liel Abada inspired the Bhoys to a comprehensive 4-0 win over the Gers.

Abada helped himself to a beautiful brace, while Jota added a delicate chip to make it 2-0 in the opening 32 minutes.

Abada extended the lead to 3-0 with his second of the game five minutes from the break before David Turnbull sealed the deal in the second half.

Following the win over their rivals and main challenger for the title, Celtic maintained its 100% record this season.

The defending champions have now won six of their opening six games which see them move five (5) points clear of Rangers on the table.

Rangers did try to get back into the game but despite being the dominant side on the ball, Giovanni van Bronckhorst was helpless as his side lost for the first time in nine matches.

Both Celtic and Rangers will now switch attention to the Champions League which kicks off next week.
