Former Rangers goalkeeper Liam Kelly had a blinder against Celtic today.

The 22-year-old, who left Rangers to join Livingston in June, pulled off a string of fine saves to deny the Hoops – including one brilliant one late on to keep out Tom Rogic.

It was one of those afternoons when Celtic could have played all day and not beaten Kelly, who originally joined the Gers as a 10-year-old.

The Scotland Under-21 international has posted a number of excellent performances for the Lions this season, and here is how Rangers fans reacted to his performance versus Celtic today.

Hindsight is a great thing, but really, Rangers boss Steven Gerrard was right to let him go.

At his age, Kelly needed regular football but he wasn’t going to get it at Ibrox, with Gerrard already having Allan McGregor and Wes Foderingham to name but a few.

But his performance against Celtic is a big reminder that Kelly could be a rising star in Scottish football and it wouldn’t be a huge surprise to see him leave the Almondvale Stadium next summer if he maintains this form all season.
