Pedro Caixinha: 'I am to blame for Rangers loss to Celtic'

Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha does not blame his players after their latest humiliation at the hands of Celtic, claiming that the responsibility falls on his lap.

Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha has blamed himself for his side's 5-1 home defeat to Celtic on Saturday.

The Bhoys followed up last weekend's 2-0 Scottish Cup semi-final win with a 5-1 victory at Ibrox, which took the aggregate score over six meetings this season to 16-4 in favour of Brendan Rodgers's men.

In response to Rangers' latest setback, Caixinha - who has been in charge for the last two defeats - admitted that his side had been outclassed.

He told Sky Sports News: "After a 5-1 defeat you have not that much to say. They were better, they deserved to win. I really believed the players can do it, but it just took five minutes - everything was wrong.

"The man responsible is me - the players did everything they worked on, they were ready to do it. I take responsibility for everything."

The result marked the first time Celtic have ever scored five at Ibrox.
