Celtic B twice came from behind to claim a stirring victory over Rangers B in a pulsating Lowland League derby at Parkhead.
The Ibrox youngsters, sitting top of the division, spectacularly collapsed after taking a second half advantage as Darren O'Dea's Hoops rallied to earn a stunning 5-2 victory. Goals from Rocco Vata, Mackenzie Carse, an own goal from Charlie McCann and Joey Dawson's late double meant McCann's penalty at the other end and a James Graham strike counted for nothing.
A thrilling 90 minutes, with the likes of Ange Postecoglou, Stephen Welsh and Ross Wilson in attendance, set a high bar for the senior sides ahead of a crucial Premiership clash at Ibrox on Monday. Victory for Celtic moves them to within three points of Rangers at the fifth tier summit and, crucially, they have a game in hand with which to further close the gap.
