Andy Halliday has crowned his former Rangers boss Steven Gerrard's penalty against Celtic his favourite goal of the weekend in a cheeky dig at his rivals.

The Hearts midfielder has lapped up the Liverpool legend's goal in a front of a crowded away section at Anfield as a Reds Legends side emerged 2-0 winners over their opponents in Hoops.

Gerrard - who managed Halliday in his first two seasons at Rangers and won the Premiership in 2021 - was targeted by missiles as he celebrated but his former midfielder was happy to see him net.

Speaking on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard, the 31-year-old was asked to provide what he thought was goal of the weekend, and Halliday replied: "I don't get a lot of opportunities to have a wee sly dig at Celtic these days so I am picking Steven Gerrard's penalty.
