Celtic pip Rangers in fiery derby

James Forrest scored a late winner as Celtic won 2-1 at home against Rangers, who had Alfredo Morelos sent off for the fifth time this season, in a pulsating Old Firm derby in the Scottish Premiership yesterday.

With the match heading for a draw, the hosts were alert to pounce on a loose pass from Rangers captain James Tavernier, before Forrest slotted home the winner.

The game ended in a brawl as Neil Lennon's Celtic moved 13 points clear at the top and have all but secured an eighth consecutive league title with seven games remaining. - REUTERS
