Celtic star laps up Rangers win as missile launched at Hoops players amid Ibrox celebrations

Wishaw's David Turnbull was keen to enjoy celebrations after a pivotal Celtic win over Rangers - and a missile was thrown in his direction amid the emotion.

The midfielder made his second appearance following a hamstring injury in December during the Hoops' crucial 2-1 Premiership victory at Ibrox.

Aaron Ramsey had put Rangers ahead but Celtic are now six points clear at the top with six games to go this league season thanks to Tom Rogic and Cameron Carter-Vickers goals.

Turnbull was brought in the final quarter with Ange Postecoglou's side keen to see out a massive win that puts them within touching distance of reclaiming Premiership glory.

Proceedings were marred by a broken bottle on the park prior to the games resumption after half-time, and again unfortunate scenes played out at the final whistle.

As the Scotland international and his teammates celebrated in front of their fans and the small section of Rangers supporters that remained inside Ibrox, a missile can be seen hurtling towards them on TV replays.

It forced several players - including Hamilton academy graduate James McCarthy - to duck and ensure they weren't hit.

Turnbull has been a key player for the Hoops when fit and currently has nine goals with seven assists for the season.
