A member of Celtic‘s backroom staff required stitches after being hit by a glass bottle during the team’s 2-1 victory over arch-rivals Rangers on Sunday.

Celtic have said the staff member, whose name wasn’t disclosed, “required urgent medical treatment and stitches to a head wound” following an incident that took place as players, officials and staff made their way up the tunnel at half-time.
