Giovanni Van Bronckhorst’s team continues its successful run in the Scottish Premiership. Rangers were shaken but out when they faced St. Johnstone on Wednesday.

Ryan Kent sealed the match with a 2-0 goal for Rangers on his return from the locker room (50th).

In the absence of their key players, Celtic came to Ross County with a completely modified eleven.

But in the second half, Ross County reduced the score to 1-1 in the 57th minute through Jack Baldwin. Celtic were able to snatch victory at the end of extra time (90+7).
