Celtic Player Ratings: Rangers (H)

Celtic capped off 2019 with a desperately poor performance at home to Rangers ending in a 2-1 defeat.

A deflection off of Odsonne Edouard cancelled out a Ryan Kent strike before Nicola Katic’s header in the second-half won it for Steven Gerrard’s side.

With Rangers edging the opening minutes of the game it was the visitors who took the lead.

A ball rolled across allowed Kent to curl home via the post to put his side 1-0 up.

However it didn’t take long for Celtic to respond and grab the equaliser before half-time.

Callum McGregor’s shot came off Edouard on its way towards goal to wrongfoot Alan McGregor and bounce into the net.

After half-time, Rangers jumped back in front as Katic rose highest to nod home at the near post.

Celtic pushed for the equaliser thereafter but lacked any real quality going forward as their rivals looked comfortable.

Christopher Jullien headed close from a couple of corners but to no avail.

Alfredo Morelos saw another inevitable red card for second yellow as he dived in the box late on.

Here’s how we rated the players after a disappointing performance.
