Peter Grant couldn't resist an on-air swipe at Rangers as Celtic players celebrated victory at Parkhead.

The Celtic hero poked fun at Philippe Clement as he enjoyed celebrations following the crucial derby victory to put his former club within touching distance of the league crown.

Grant was on co-commentary duties for Celtic TV and made reference to Clement's "moral winners" remark after the 3-3 draw at Ibrox last month. 

The Rangers manager had branded his side "clearly moral winners of this fight" after the breathless draw on April 7.

But the comments were used against him on Saturday as Grant was quick to troll Rangers.

As the Celtic players celebrated with a lap of honour, Grant joked: "Do you get three points for a moral victory? I don't know if that still counts.

"At least we get the victory and the three points."

Commentator Gerry McCulloch replied: "Unfortunately for some, not."

Clement had commented after the 3-3 last month: "There are moments I can say what I said at half time, it's better that I not say it now - that is between me and the dressing room. 

"I am happy about the reaction, they showed personality. 

"And I think at the end we are clearly moral winners of this fight, of this game - with a lot of passion, everything the supporters want, everything this club is about, they showed in the second half.

"And that they need to show in the next couple of weeks in every challenge we have."
