Brendan Rodgers came out with a hilarious one-liner in the Celtic dressing room after they beat Rangers in the Premier Sports Cup final last season.
The game went to and fro, with the Ibrox club initially taking the lead in the first half through Nedim Bajrami.
Greg Taylor levelled things up for Celtic at the beginning of the second 45 before Daizen Maeda soon made it 2-1.

Mohamed Diomande then got the game back even on 75 minutes.
Nicolas Kuhn thought he won it with less than five to go, although Danilo popped up at the death to take proceedings to extra time.
Celtic ultimately triumphed on spot-kicks, and post-match, Rodgers was in a humorous mood.
Indeed, as he addressed his players after the game, he said: "If we play well, we win. If we don't play well, we win."
