A big performance to silence the doubters.<\/p>\n<p><span>Alistair Johnstone 7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Had his hands full with Matondo and Sterling trying to combine down the flank but gave little away.

Otherwise, assured in everything that he did.<\/p>\n<p><span>Liam Scales 7.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Didn\u2019t cover himself in glory against St Johnstone but delivered a measured and confident display when his side needed it most. Booked.<\/p>\n<p><span>Greg Taylor 6.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Couple of wayward passes broke Celtic\u2019s rhythm as they tried to get going. But, to his credit, he never once hid.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Callum McGregor 7.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Put an indifferent start to the season behind to dominate Rangers midfield. A model of composure in a white-hot atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p><span>Matt O\u2019Riley 8.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Arguably his best performance in a Celtic jersey. Intelligent header over the top set up Furuhashi. Always had time on the ball.<\/p>\n<p><span>David Turnball 7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Efficient use of the ball gave Celtic a foothold in the match. Tired in the second half and a couple of slip-offs came before he was subbed.<\/p>\n<p><span>Liel Abada 7.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Delightful cross for Furuhashi ended with the Japanese scuffing his shot. Was menacing and creative on the flank all afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><span>Kyogo Furuhashi 7.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Missed two good chances to open the scoring before he did. Just didn\u2019t hesitate when O\u2019Riley\u2019s header caught the Rangers defence napping. An outstanding finish<\/p>\n<p><span>Daizen Maeda 7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Plenty of service but not a lot of end product for the winger. Inches away from converting Abada\u2019s cross.<\/p>\n<p><span>Manager 7.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Brendan Rodgers had to piece together a side to record a victory which will have felt every bit as sweet as any he enjoyed first time around at Celtic Park.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/03\/17\/75013461-12475973-image-m-6_1693758765687.jpg\" height=\"419\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Matt O&#8217;Riley<\/p>\n<p><span>Substitutes:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ralston (for Johnston 64).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yang (for Abada 64).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Holm (for Turnbull 64).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bernabei (for Taylor 74).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Oh (for Furuhashi 76).<\/p>\n<p><span>Not Used:<\/span> Bain, Palma, Kobayashi, Kwon.<\/p>\n<p><span>Referee 7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Asked to by VAR Alan Muir to view the Lagerbielke\/ Dessers tangle, Don Robertson was immediately put in an impossible position.
