Gers hit back to beat Bhoys

Kenny Miller claimed a brace as Rangers came from behind to beat Celtic 3-1 to maintain their 100 per cent record in the league to claim victory in the Old Firm clash.

Striker Miller, who spent one season at Parkhead, struck twice in the second half after Celtic had led at half-time.

Gary Hooper had given the Bhoys the advantage at half-time, but Glenn Loovens' own goal let the visitors back in the game before Miller's decisive contribution.

What must be one of the most important games in world football was given that extra dollop of spice as both teams entered the fixture in excellent form.

Both had won their previous eight SPL fixtures to stand level on points, with only goal difference putting Rangers top.

As Rangers celebrated wildly at the end of the game, Celtic boss Neil Lennon will wonder how it all went so wrong.

It must be something that Lennon's opposite number Walter Smith will too have contemplated during his 50 Old Firm clashes.

A goal down at the interval, Smith sent his team pumped up out for the second half with winning intent dripping from them.

Passion is the one thing that you can expect in these games and within the first 15 minutes it threatened to derail this particular one.
