Being written off before an Old Firm derby is one thing for a Rangers manager.
But being told you might concede TEN goals against Celtic in a Scottish Cup semi-final? That’s taking underdog status to a whole new level. But Mark Warburton says those were the types of crazy predictions being thrown at him in the build-up to a 2016 Hampden showdown.
Despite being tagged as no-hopers, his Rangers team defied the odds, beating Ronny Deila’s side on penalties after a pulsating 2-2 draw at Hampden. No one could have predicted the outcome. That Celtic side boasted the quality of Craig Gordon, Mikael Lustig, Dedryk Boyata, Kieran Tierney, Scott Brown, Stefan Johansen and Patrick Roberts. Current Parkhead skipper Callum McGregor came off the bench, along with Tom Rogic.
