Ranger vs Celtic FC: what an amazing match (Highlight)
Rangers scored to tie the game at 2-2, but Idah put Celtic ahead right away.
The Irish player Idah scored a goal past Jack Butland in the Rangers’ goal after Paulo Bernardo sent a pass to him in the box.
Idah joined on loan from Norwich City in January and has shown great strength, speed, and finishing skills during his time at the club. It was easy to see how he helped off the bench this afternoon.
Celtic got a point at the end of the game, which ended 3-3.
But there were many good things, like Idah’s arrival as a substitute.
We don’t know if Celtic will try to sign Idah permanently in the summer, but one thing is for sure: his performance this afternoon has made his chances of coming permanently better.

Celtic’s lead has grown to 2-0 after Matt O’Riley easily put a Panenka penalty kick down the middle of the goal past Jack Butland.
After VAR checked to see if Connor Goldson had touched the ball, Celtic was given a penalty, and O’Riley made it clear from the spot.
Even though Celtic has had trouble this season converting penalties, O’Riley’s shot was perfect.
The Danish midfielder put Ibrox to sleep with his amazing calmness by putting the ball in the middle of the goal.
Using everything he knows about playing in Glasgow derbies in the past, O’Riley has been great in the first half.
Indeed, Celtic lived up to the challenge. Daizen Maeda’s early goal put the Hoops ahead just 21 seconds into the game.

Just 21 seconds into the game at Ibrox, Daizen Maeda gave Celtic the lead over Rangers.
After Joe Hart cleared the ball, a no-look pass from James Tavernier hit Maeda and went past Jack Butland in the Rangers goal, giving Butland no chance.
Maeda’s high press caught the Rangers captain off guard, even though the Japanese winger usually doesn’t give Tavernier much time with the ball in greek derbies.
In the last few weeks, Maeda has looked really good on the left side. He played on the right for most of the season.
Some people question Maeda’s professional skill, but one thing is for sure: he is one of the best in the world at pressing his opponents.
A lot of people in the media think Rangers will win, so Celtic is off to the best possible start in such an important game.
Celtic has pressed high every chance they’ve had, showing a lot of purpose, even though there were no Hoops fans at the game.
