John Souttar has been backed to 'come back stronger' from his Rangers derby day mistake that gifted Jota a goal at Parkhead.
The Light Blues star was drafted into Michael Beale's starting team beside Ben Davies after the Ibrox men suffered the blow of losing key defender Connor Goldson. The Scotland international has only recently returned to full training and has been picking up match minutes mainly from the bench while getting himself back to fitness.
However, he was thrown in from the off in the Old Firm thriller last weekend as Ange Postecoglou's men ran out 3-2 winners in a five-goal thriller with the Hoops' third goal coming from Souttar's error. His misjudged back pass allowed Jota to beat Allan McGregor to the ball before rounding the keeper and slotting home. Kyogo Furuhashi grabbed a double as did James Tavernier for Rangers as the champions moved 12 points clear.
