Kemar Roofe watched on from afar as Rangers defeated Celtic at Ibrox.
The Light Blues attacker has been spending a two week period in Qatar working on his hip rehabilitation as he bids to get back to full fitness and force his way into Michael Beale's plans ahead of the huge summer rebuild heading for Govan.
The Ibrox star has been struck down with a series of injuries of late but is doing all he can to come out the other side and get back to featuring regularly without issue. He's been putting in the graft behind the scenes and what better way for the Rangers forward to round off his trip than take in a derby day success with a group of supporters.

Roofe joined the Qatar Loyal and Blue supporters group to take in the final Old Firm derby of the season with the punters and 30-year-old left delighted as Beale got his first victory over Celtic and Ange Postecoglou at the fifth attempt in a comfortable Ibrox triumph.
Todd Cantwell opened the scoring after just five minutes after following up a John Lundstram effort that had been pushed out by Joe Hart. John Souttar added a second from a headed effort from James Tavernier's corner before Fashion Sakala capitalised on a mix up between Callum McGregor and Carl Starfelt to race through on goal and round Hart before rolling the ball into an empty net.
Roofe hailed the result as he took to social media. He wrote on Instagram: "Great way to round off a very productive two weeks in Qatar for my hip rehabilitation by watching the boys get a top result with @qatarloyalandblue and @tidy68."
The supporters were all clearly delighted to see the attacker as the video he shared showed them posing for snaps alongside Roofe.
They also serenaded him with chants of 'The Roofe is on fire' on a day they won't forget in a hurry.
