The former Liverpool manager has won 10 and drawn two of his 12 Old Firm derbies since joining Celtic, but Rangers’ long wait for a victory came to an end with a deserved victory at Ibrox.
After 30 minutes of dominance and missed opportunities, Jack converted Ryan Kent’s low cross to give Steven Gerrard’s side a deserved lead.
Celtic, backed by just 700 travelling supporters, failed to seriously test Allan McGregor in the Rangers goal and struggled to contain the home side’s surging attacks. Re-live the action below:
Rangers 1-0 Celtic
It was a much-deserved win for the home side, who may even feel they should have won by more, but that does not matter too much right now.
Ryan Jack's goal in the first-half after a string of great chances was the only of the match in which Celtic will be bitterly disappointed with.
The visitors failed to really test Allan McGregor in the Rangers goal, which tells you all you need to know about their performance.
