Quick Review


Rangers were probably the better side in th early stages of the match, but found themselves 2-0 down within half an hour. A good run by Paul McStay in 21 mins, and a great cross by Owen Archdeacon, Brian McClair mis-hit the ball and it fell to the feet of Johnston and Celtic were one up. Eigght mins later and McClair fired the ball past Walker in the Rangers goal to double Celtic's lead. Willie McStay was then sent off for a foul on McMinn in 33 minutes and a minute later Fraser pulled one back for Rangers. Half Time 1-2

In the second half, Peter Grant replaced Archdeacon to make up for the loss of McStay, and 2 minutes after the restart Tommy burns scored Celtic's third. Rangers then scord three goals in 11 mins through McCoist, Fleck and fraser again to take the lead. Celtic refused to give in and a great 30 yard drive from Murdo MacLeod levelled the scores again and the match finished 4-4.
