Celtic survived the “thriller”, Rangers comfortably

by

Celtic led 2-0, tied at 2-2, but eventually managed to win 3-2 at Aberdeen’s home for the 26th game of the Scottish Premier League and maintained a +1 lead at the top of the second Rangers, remaining the big favorite for winning at least first place in the regular season, leaving the 1983 European Cup winners below the middle of the standings.

The “Catholics” were ahead 2-0 with Zotas in 16 ‘and Auriley in 20’. The hosts counterattacked and tied at 2-2 with Ramires in 56 ‘and Ferguson in 61’, but in the next phase Zota formed the final result.

The Rangers comfortably defeated Hibernian 2-0 at “Ibrox Park” and kept the +1 in second place, firmly claiming the return to the first place and leaving the “hips” at -1 from the privileged six.

Scorers of the “protesters” were Tavernier in 5 ‘and Morelos in 57’.

A double stay for Dundee, who beat Hearts 2-1 in Edinburgh, slipped out of last place and left the “hearts” firmly in third place.

Dundee United “caught” Motherwell in the top four with the 2-0 home match between them.

St Mirren remained in sixth place with a 2-0 home win over St. Johnston which was in last place.

Ross County failed to escape the last two places with the 1-1 concession to Livingston.
