Celtic loanee Calvin Miller squared up against Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers today.

Calvin Miller of Celtic is seen during the Scottish Premier League between Celtic and Kilmarnock at Celtic Park on May 9, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Calvin Miller helped parent club Celtic take two valuable points off the Hoops’ Premiership rivals Rangers this afternoon.

The 20-year-old, on a season-long loan from Celtic at Dundee, played the full 90 minutes as Rangers were held to a 1-1 draw at Dens Park this afternoon.

Miller and Dundee ensured that the Gers are two points behind the top-of-the-table Hoops and this has to go down as a missed opportunity for Steven Gerrard’s troops, who could – and should – have moved level on points with Brendan Rodgers’s side at the summit.

The Ibrox outfit faced 10 men for 71 minutes following Nathan Ralph’s red card.

Andy Halliday cancelled out Kenny Miller’s opener within minutes of the dismissal, before Kyle Lafferty had a legitimate goal chalked off for offside.

It just wasn’t Rangers’ day – and the Celtic man certainly played a part in that.

Miller struggled early doors but gradually grew into the game, and fans of the Parkhead club have offered a very mixed reaction to their loanee’s display.
