Chris Sutton was blown away by Matt O'Riley's panenka penalty in the Rangers v Celtic clash at Ibrox on 7 April.

The goal from the Hoops midfielder made the scoreline 2-0 and at that point, it seemed like they were cruising and on course to pick up three points.

However, Gers came back strongly in the second half and the game ended 3-3.

Speaking on Sky Sports Main Event, Sutton said on 7 April at 12:34 "Blimey. What on Earth? Panenka. That's courageous from Matt O'Riley. Good goal."

Clement and Rangers deserve credit for comeback v Celtic

O'Riley's audacious panenka penalty in the Old Firm derby showcased immense courage, particularly in such a high-stakes encounter.

The midfielder's bold decision to execute such a daring move exemplified his confidence and composure under pressure, ultimately contributing to Celtic's lead in the match.

However, credit must also be attributed to Clement and the Rangers team for orchestrating a remarkable turnaround.

The Belgian's half-time team talk evidently spurred his players into action, resulting in a spirited comeback from the hosts in the second half.

Their resilience and determination to fight back from a two-goal deficit demonstrate the character and resolve instilled within the team.

As a result of their impressive performance, Gers now find themselves in a favourable position as contenders for the league title.

There are no excuses for them to not go out there and get the job done against Dundee and the remainder of the games.
