Celtic Legends went down 2-0 as Steven Gerrard got the last laugh at Anfield.
The Liverpool hero and former Rangers manager notched a penalty after getting pelters from the Hoops fans – and almost ended up getting hit by missiles. A section of Hoops fans went over the score when Gerrard tried to win them up with his celebrations on a day when both clubs raised fortunes for the Liverpool and Celtic Foundations.
The Reds skipper slotted from the spot and got met by a shower of objects, but it didn’t take too much of a shine out of a good natured and fairly competitive friendly clash in front of a bumper crowd. Gerrard grabbed the opener with Mark Gonzalez making it two early in the second half – before Celtic had TWO goals ruled out for offside. Darren O’Dea thought he’d atoned for giving away the penalty when he headed home, only for his celebration to be cut short, while Ragnar Klavan’s blushes were spared when his own goal was scrubbed due to an earlier flag.
