Rangers fans are raging at John Lundstram's shocking tackle on Alistair Johnston during their Old Firm clash against Celtic.

The top of the table fixture between Celtic and Rangers burst into life with three quick-fire goals in the space of five blistering minutes.

Celtic opened the scoring in the 35th minute through Matt O'Riley, with an own-goal from Lundstram doubling their advantage.

Two minutes later, Cyriel Dessers pulled one back for the visitors.

After the hosts made it 2-1, Rangers were reduced to 10 men following a moment of madness from Lundstram.

Following his own-goal, the 30-year-old's outing went from bad to worse as he received his marching orders following a VAR review.
