Celtic lost two goals in quick succession in the second half at Pittodrie as Aberdeen looked to take points off the league leaders. The raucous home crowd cheered on Stephen Glass’ team after Christian Ramirez and Lewis Ferguson canceled out Jota and O’Riley’s first half strikes.
The news was greeted with cheers at Ibrox as Rangers overcame Hibs. The Rangers support were so confident that Aberdeen were on the ascendency that they began to sign ‘We Shall Not Be Moved’. As it stood, they would go two points ahead of Celtic and a Rangers fan captures the moment that the Ibrox faithful realised what had happened up in Aberdeen – Jota had restored Celtic’s lead.
The Celtic fans that were lucky enough to have a ticket for the game at Pittodrie were belting it out from the stands, though. It is a huge three points for Celtic and Ange’s team restore their place at the top of the Cinch Premiership table.
