Celtic 3 Rangers 2 - 30th October 1982

Going into the first Old Firm game of the season, the Premier division was a tight affair. Celtic sat on top, just 1 point clear of eventual winners Dundee United. Rangers and Aberdeen were both a further point behind.

The match itself was a cracker with Rangers taking the lead through a Robert Prytz goal - directly from a corner. Paul McStay equalises on his Old Firm debut, starting and finishing the move, only for Davie Cooper to restore Rangers lead with a looping header. 2-1 down at half time, Celtic fight back in the 2nd half. McStay again shows his class, setting up Frank McGarvey for equaliser, before Murdo MacLeod slots home the winning goal and send Celtic Park into bedlam.
