John Lundstram stares down Celtic boo boys as Rangers enforcer walks the Parkhead gauntlet

Rangers midfielder John Lundstram revelled in a shower of boos he received in the immediate aftermath of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Celtic.

The 28-year-old has come a firm favourite at Ibrox with his displays in the heart of the midfield pivotal both at home and in Europe.

And Lundstram enjoyed a smile as he was greeted with anger which included chants of 's****bag' as he exited Celtic Park following the stalemate.

The midfielder was involved in the heat of the battle but took the pantomime jeers in his stride as he Rangers staff guided him out of the main entrance.

The former Sheffield United enforcer spoke before the game about how he didn't fully realise the magnitude of Rangers when he arrived last summer.

And part of that experience includes landing in the cross hairs of opposition supporters after a big derby match.

And Lundstram attempted a spot of mind games before the match as he put the onus on the league leaders.

He told Sky Sports: “We’ve got better as the season’s gone on. There’s a lot of pressure on Celtic now to take the league but with pressure comes expectation. Now it’s on them to finish strongly."

But the draw leaves Celtic in control with three Premiership games remaining.
