Fireworks were heard across the city after Celtic were held to a goalless draw at Dundee United.

Chief Superintendent Mark Sutherland, Divisional Commander for Greater Glasgow Division, said: “We are aware of proposed gatherings in both George Square and outside Ibrox stadium on Sunday, 7 March, 2021.

“In line with current Scottish Government Coronavirus guidelines, all gatherings are currently prohibited and we would urge members of the public to comply with these restrictions.

"An appropriate policing response is in place and officers are already using the approach of engaging, explaining and encouraging compliance with the restrictions.

“Our response will be measured and appropriate. We understand fans want to celebrate but they must do so safely and lawfully. We continue to ask everyone to do the right thing to stop the spread of the virus.”

Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf added to the plea on Twitter. 

He said: "Congratulations to @RangersFC  - churlish not to recognise how well they have played this season I understand Rangers fans will be desperate to celebrate but please remember you must stay at home.

"No mass gatherings are allowed. We cannot risk any further spread of the virus."
