'Top-shelf save', Fans of both sides of the Old Firm and pundits hail Allan McGregor's save from Leigh Griffiths
An early double save to deny his namesake Calum and then Odsonne Edouard was followed by a finger-tip push onto the post to deny Leigh Griffiths after 21 minutes.
And it’ the flying top-corner save that had fans on both sides of the Old Firm divide impressed, reluctantly or otherwise.

Pundits were also impressed by the goalkeeper on his 400th start for Rangers, and 401st appearance.
"He’s got no right in saving that,” said former Scotland team-mate James McFadden on Sky Sports.
"The save he makes from Griffiths has to be up there with his top ones and he’s dug Rangers out of a hole so many times.,” said ex-Celtic defender Mark Wilson.
