‘We showed them who’s boss,’ Broony

SCOTT BROWN, again magnificent for Celtic in the Glasgow Derby rubbed salt into the Ibrox wounds with his little dance of joy in front of the 700 monsters, Nacho Novo included. He then kept it up in the post match interview – absolutely vintage Broony, outstanding!

“Performance-wise, it was exceptional. From start to finish we dictated. They came to Celtic Park and we pretty much showed them who’s boss for 90 minutes.

“It’s all about possession and keeping the team spirit going. It’s about kicking on from there onwards.

“They didn’t want to press us too high up the park as they had a hard game midweek, so they were all a bit leggy.

“We showed our quality again today and we had a hard game as well midweek – but we pulled through.

“We have a great team spirit and we showed that again on the park. We celebrate together, we work together and when we lose, we lose together – that’s what a good team does.”

Goalscorer Olivier Ntcham, who could hardly get a word in but at least got the Champagne, said, “I’m very happy for the team and for myself, also. We won the game and that’s the most important thing. It was a hard 90 minutes.”
