Match Trivia
At Ibrox Park, Govan, estimated attendance 45,000 drawings (gate and stands) £1242. After some even play Celtic were awarded a free kick, and from this Somers who was lying unmarked, scored the first goal. The Rangers made a strong replay, Smith and Campbell being very prominent, but McDonald missed one cross badly, Livingstone was very near the mark with a hard drive. Still maintaining the advantage, Rangers were still within their opponents half when Smith was badly damaged about the head by Young, and had to be carried off. He was absent ten minutes, and during that time Livingstone went through the Celtic defence and just missed scoring. Immediately after Smith’s return Quinn caught up a return from McNair, and racing between the backs, easily bear Rennie. Thereafter it was as even half, but neither side again scored. Rangers opened well in the second half, Murray however who was completely off colour twice missing line centre. At the other end Rennie cleared from Kivlichan, and Hamilton beating Law gave Quinn a centre, which he failed to convert. From the points Celtic were content to maintain their lead, and all the best efforts of the Rangers forwards were nullified by good defensive play
