Alonso, who was part of Ronald Koeman's coaching staff during the Dutchman's time at Goodison Park, witnessed his Celtic side score a 99th-minute equaliser against their Old Firms rivals Rangers during their Scottish Women's Premier League derby, which kept the Hoops above their long-standing bitter rivals.

Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, the former Blues coach, Alonso, revealed he was called a "little rat" and later revealed he didn't speak to McPherson at all during the game.
"You can see there, somebody just pushed me from behind," said Alonso. I don't know, I never talked to him the whole game. It's always disappointing to concede a goal in the last minute, I totally get it but I don't know. "I was called 'a little rat'!"
