Three Rangers things we learned with McLaughlin howler and new stars below par in Celtic calamity

Rangers were humiliated by Celtic in the first Old Firm derby of the season - as their rivals opened up a five point gap at the top of the Premiership.

Celtic swept past their Glasgow rivals 4-0 with two goals from Liel Abada and a stunning finish from Jota at Celtic Park and a gift from Jon McLaughlin to David Turnbull. Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men had braced themselves for a fast start from Ange Postecoglou's free scoring team but were handed a huge defeat as Celtic laid down an early marker.

It took just eight minutes for the home side to take the lead after the Gers defence was caught sleeping at the throw in. The quick throw was slid through to Jota who slotted in a one-touch cross for Abada whose strike slipped past McLaughlin despite his efforts.
