Brendan Rodgers lacks respect says Rangers boss Philip Clement.

Brendan Rodgers, the Celtics’ adversary, has come under fire from Philippe Clement for allegedly disrespecting his Rangers team.

When Rodgers told Rangers he was game for “a bit of fun” at Parkhead this weekend. He lit the blue touch paper ahead of a possible title decider.

After the Ibrox team defeated 10-man Kilmarnock 4-1 to close the gap on their fierce rivals to three points. A furious Clement retaliated.

 

The Belgian stated, “That is something that I would never say about an opponent. But okay, we will see. It’s not really respectful towards my team. That is what I think.

 

So I will never say things like that about an opponent.” Rangers, who were six points behind Kilmarnock going into the game. A nightmare start when captain James Tavernier scored an own goal after 12 minutes. After the second pitchside VAR check.

Brendan Rodgers lacks respect says Rangers boss Philip Clement.

Rangers were awarded a penalty, and Killie defender Joe Wright was sent off for handling the ball, but Tavernier was sent off for handling the ball. Before Will Dennis made a fantastic save from the spot kick, Tavernier scored a goal.

Ben Davies, a defender who came on at halftime to replace the injured Leon Balogun. Scored his first goal for Rangers to break Kilmarnock’s resistance. Tom Lawrence and John Souttar’s late goals cut Celtic’s lead to three points and five goals.

Any realistic chance of Rangers winning the title would be eliminated by a loss at Parkhead. But Clement remained defiant, saying, “We are going to fight until the very end but I didn’t need that game today for that.” I mentioned that both after Dundee and last week.

We were all let down by the two outcomes.
