Steven Gerrard celebrated in front of Celtic supporters
Celtic fans chucked bottles at him that had to be removed from the pitch by stewards
The Old Firm rivalry was on show at Anfield as fuming Celtic fans chucked objects at him from the stands as he was embraced by his team-mates.
Gerrard was in charge at Rangers for three seasons and helped them win the Scottish Premiership in the 2020/21 season.
The victory stopped Celtic getting their hands on ten league titles in a row.
Rangers fans taunted their rivals on social media, one said: โLaunching bottles at him and everything. Steven Gerrard killed ten in a row.โ
Another reacted: โThe man that destroyed everything they dreamed of for a decade.โ
Yet fans were quick to respond citing Gerrardโs slip that led to Liverpool losing the title against Chelsea in 2014 and with the fact Celtic have won 22 trophies in ten years.
Some condemned the reaction of Celtic supporters, saying: โItโs a charity match and theyโve actually launched stuff at Gerrard.โ
A second commented: โImagine Celtic fans being salty at a charity game.โ
