Rangers were far from their best at Celtic Park on Wednesday, as Celtic took a well deserved 1-0 win.
Celtic Vs. Rangers, Old Firm Derby: Halftime Score, Tied 0-0 In Open Match
Celtic and Rangers haven’t produced any goals and also haven’t produced a whole lot of quality thus far in the Old Firm Derby, but it hasn’t been for a lack of action. It’s been a fun match so far, even if the intensity of the rivalry and the wind hasn’t been the least bit conducive to beautiful football. It’s been an even game, but Rangers can feel a bit hard done by, as they were not given a good goal. The score is tied up at 0-0 at halftime, but it seems unlikely to finish that way.
The moment of controversy came in the 7th minute, when Sone Aluko played a cross to the back post from the right flank. Lee Wallace got forward and got on the end of the cross with a header to the near post that appeared to go into the goal, but Fraser Forster made a save. Upon replay, it’s apparent that the ball crossed the line, but the move happened extremely quickly and the linesman was screened. The call was missed, but the officials can hardly be blamed.
