THE CHILL TO WIN

Diomande: We didn't celebrate like we won the league at Celtic Park.. we are happy, it was cool and we move on

THE Rangers supporters sparked a Parkhead party on Sunday that made T in the Park look more like a teddy bears' picnic.

But Mohamed Diomande insisted the Light Blues dressing room was more like the chill-out tent.

The Gers squad copped some flak for the wild celebrations after Hamza Igamane's late winner in the epic derby win at the weekend and beyond the final whistle.

The victory cut Celtic's Premiership lead to 13 points but the Ibrox men know the title is all but tucked up in the Hoops' trophy cabinet.

It was still a sweet win but Diomande is adamant no one at Rangers went over the top in the aftermath.

They know this season has been a major domestic disappointment.

A day in the sun doesn't make up for being so far out of the league running at this stage, or for getting launched out of the Scottish Cup by Championship Queen's Park.

But that doesn't mean they can't enjoy a moment of joy in a testing campaign - even if the away dressing room was far more subdued than some might have suspected.

Diomande said: "I am happy that we got the win and we all knew it was not going to be easy.

"Three points was the most important thing and it was just chill, cool, and we just move on.
