Sport nationRoss McCormack, a former Rangers player, has expressed his concerns about Celtic’s League Cup win over Rangers. Despite Rangers’ decent performance in the cup final, McCormack believes that Celtic’s ability to score three goals against Rangers, despite not playing well, is a worrying sign for the Ibrox club.
McCormack’s comments come after Celtic’s 3-2 win over Rangers in the League Cup final, which was marred by controversy surrounding a penalty award. However, McCormack’s concerns go beyond the controversy surrounding the game, and instead focus on the underlying issues that Rangers face in their bid to catch up with Celtic.
According to McCormack, Celtic’s dominance over Rangers is a cause for concern, particularly given the gap between the two teams has grown larger since last season. McCormack believes that Rangers’ inability to capitalize on Celtic’s poor performance in the cup final is a worrying sign, and suggests that the Ibrox club still has a long way to go before they can seriously challenge Celtic for the league title.
McCormack’s comments are likely to resonate with Rangers fans, who have grown increasingly frustrated with their team’s inability to challenge Celtic for domestic honors. With the league title race heating up, Rangers will need to improve their performance significantly if they are to have any chance of catching up with Celtic.
In the meantime, Celtic will look to build on their League Cup win when they take on Dundee United on Sunday. A win for Celtic would keep them in pole position for the league title, and would put pressure on Rangers and Aberdeen to respond in their respective games.
As the Scottish Premiership season enters its crucial phase, the stakes are high for both Celtic and Rangers. With the Old Firm derby looming large on the horizon, both teams will need to be at the top of their game if they are to emerge victorious.
