Rangers beat Celtic 3-0 in the first Old Firm derby of the season
GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) --- Dan Neil scored a double and Rangers beat Celtic 3-0
in the first Old Firm derby of the season Sunday --- in the Scottish league cup
quarterfinals.
Celtic fans were barred from the game following a Scottish league review of the
disorder that marred the Scottish Cup quarterfinal match between the teams in
March.
There were no immediate reports of disorder from the latest encounter.
The match also marked Rangers' first victory over Celtic under new coach Derek
McInnes.
Neil, who wore the captain's armband, put Rangers ahead from the edge of the
area midway through the first half.
Newly signed Kevin Kelsy scored Rangers' second and Neil added a third with
another fine finish in the 75th.
It was the first domestic defeat this season for Celtic, which was also
eliminated from the Champions League qualifying playoffs by Austrian club LASK.
In the Oct. 31-Nov. 1 semifinals, Rangers will face Aberdeen, while Hearts will
play Hibernian.
The final is scheduled for Dec. 13.
Rangers will visit Celtic next Sunday as the teams meet again in the Scottish
Premier League.
