Great moment of triumph: Pedro Mendes celebrates Rangers' glorious 4-2 victory over Celtic in the SPL Clydesdale Bank match of the 2008-09 season. In this thrilling moment captured by renowned sports photographer Lynne Cameron, Portuguese midfielder Pedro Mendes lifts his arms in jubilation as the crowd at Ibrox Stadium erupts in cheers. The victory was a significant one for Rangers, as it marked their dominance over their arch-rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. The match, which took place on December 6, 2008, was a highly anticipated one, with both teams vying for supremacy in Scottish football. Rangers, led by manager Walter Smith, came into the game in fine form, having won their previous five league matches. Celtic, on the other hand, were determined to prove that they were still a force to be reckoned with. The first half of the match saw both teams creating chances, but it was Rangers who took the lead through Nacho Novo's goal in the 33rd minute. Celtic equalized just before halftime through Gary Caldwell, but Rangers responded strongly in the second half. Goals from Pedro Mendes, Lee McCulloch, and Sasa Papac put the game beyond Celtic's reach, with Mendes' goal being the pick of the bunch, a stunning strike from outside the box that left the Celtic goalkeeper with no chance. This victory was a morale-boosting one for Rangers, who went on to win the Scottish Premiership title that season. Pedro Mendes' goal, and the subsequent celebration, will be remembered as a defining moment in the history of this iconic Scottish football rivalry.
