Celtic scored five at Ibrox for the first time as they cruised to a 5-1 thrashing of Rangers in the final Old Firm fixture of the season.

Scott Sinclair slotted home from the penalty spot in the sixth minute before Leigh Griffiths’ rocket shot doubled their first half lead.

Callum McGregor added a third shortly after the break with Dedryck Boyata heading home a fourth.

Kenny Miller pulled one back late on before Mikel Lustig made it 5-1 to equal their biggest ever win at Ibrox, a 4-0 win back in 1897.

It is Celtic’s fifth win in six Old Firm meetings this season and leaves third-placed Rangers trailing the champions by 36 points.

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers said his players were sensational in their second win over their city rivals in six days.

“The players tactically were absolutely superb and when they had the ball they were sensational really.”

Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha said responsibility for the defeat lay with him.
