After Celtic defeated Rangers 3-0 in the derby on Sunday, most observers felt that they were the superior team.
At the beginning of the season, goals from Daizen Maeda, Kyogo Furuhashi, and Callum McGregor helped Brendan Rodgers’ team to yet another incredible victory.
You may have heard different opinions about the game if you follow commentators like Graeme Souness or even Ibrox manager Philippe Clement. Earlier in the week, when Souness was having a full-blown breakdown on talkSPORT, Clement was in a rush to cynically point out that the score line could have been 3-3.
In actuality, Celtic are currently far superior to Rangers both on and off the field. On Sunday, they appeared to have no responses for the Bhoys, and it appears that one individual in the city is aware of this.
Cerny speaks the truth about Celtic win over Rangers
New signing Vaclav Cerny reckons his side were ‘outclassed’ at Celtic Park, stating this week [Rangers Review]: “We didn’t do well at all, they outclassed us in everything. Now we have to catch them at any cost, that’s our main goal.
“It has been a while since I have witnessed such rivalry. Naturally, I never participated in their derby on behalf of Sparta Prague or Slavia Prague. But it’s far bigger and more violent than our major derby.
I’m frequently asked about the Scottish League, and I’d like to start by saying that I don’t think it differs all that much from other elite European leagues.
There are obviously better quality clubs and lesser quality ones. The top four teams in Scotland at least all have great football quality.”
The eight-point opportunity to increase the pressure Even though the season is still early, Celtic now have a chance to put a significant eight-point cushion between them and the Ibrox team before their next meeting.
Next Saturday, the Bhoys travel to Hearts, and on Sunday, Clement, Cerny, and company have a difficult trip to Tannadice to play Dundee United.
Another assured, triumphant performance against the Jam Tarts would put the Ibrox group under intense strain for their Tayside tour and raise important concerns about them.
Take every opportunity to change the situation. Celtics supporters are excited about the resumption of club football for a reason.
