Rangers secured a 1-0 victory against Celtic in the Old Firm derby at Parkhead on September 20. Right-back Dujon Sterling was a standout performer in the match, playing under manager Derek McInnes. The 26-year-old Englishman has made 11 appearances this season despite past struggles with persistent fitness and injury issues.
