Peter Lovenkrands in love with Dan Neil moment in Rangers win vs Celtic - 'Unbelievable'
The former Sunderland midfielder struck twice in last week's 3-0 Premier Sports Cup win over the same opponents at Ibrox.
While he was unable to add to his goalscoring tally in Sunday's latest Old Firm, he more than played his part in the triumph on enemy territory.
Rangers' fifth league win in a row, secured through Ryan Naderi's first-half strike, moves them two points behind a Celtic side who previously had a 100 per cent record.
It could be argued the win at Celtic Park could have been by an even greater margin, too.
Peter Lovenkrands certainly liked what he saw, especially a second-half moment involving Neil.
What Dan Neil moment impressed Peter Lovenkrands?
Neil bossed the midfield at Celtic Park, with the home side unable to get close to him at times.
That included a slick Rangers move in the second half that saw Minsu Kim play in fellow summer signing Neil on the overlap down the right.
Neil's cross was only half-dealt with by Celtic goalkeeper Viljami Sinisalo, before Cameron Carter-Vickers prevented Naderi from tapping in at the back post.
Speaking on BBC Scotland's live coverage of the game, Lovenkrands said: "This is an unbelievable opportunity. I love the overlap [from Neil] - love it."
Who was Rangers' best player vs Celtic?
Neil can certainly put together a strong argument for landing this accolade.
He completed 78 per cent of his 41 passes and won eight duels out of 16 contested.
The stand-in Rangers captain also had a shot on target and touched the ball 63 times.
However, one player on the field stood out slightly more - central-midfield partner Nicolas Raskin.
Rangers fans fully expected Raskin to be gone by now, but thank god that was not the case over the summer.
The Belgium international was better than any other midfielder on the field in what was another classy display - one that ensures the title race is very much alive.
