(Reuters) - Todd Cantwell, John Souttar and Fashion Sakala got on the scoresheet as Rangers secured a 3-0 victory at home to end rivals Celtic's hopes of setting a new Scottish Premiership points record.
Celtic, who had already wrapped up their 53rd Scottish league title last week, were looking to better their own record points tally of 106 set in 2017.
Rangers started strongly and went ahead in the fifth minute when Cantwell slotted the ball home from a tight angle, after John Lundstram's long-range attempt was parried into his path by Joe Hart.
