Steven Gerrard explains difference between Rangers vs Celtic and Liverpool vs Everton in Old Firm and Merseyside derbies
Steven Gerrard has attempted to explain the differences between Rangers vs Celtic in the Old Firm derby and the Merseyside derby which pits his former club Liverpool against Everton.Gerrard took to the field for 33 Merseyside derbies throughout his playing career, and he experienced his first Old Firm clash as Gers manager earlier this season.Gerrard had his first experience of the Old Firm derby a couple of months ago1
Gerrard had his first experience of the Old Firm derby a couple of months ago
That September encounter ended in defeat for Gerrard against his former manager Brendan Rodgers, whose Celtic side picked up all three points at Parkhead courtesy of a lone Olivier Ntcham strike.Both the Old Firm and Merseyside derbies consistently rank among the most intense matches in world football, and the former England captain has a unique experience of both playing for and managing teams in the clashes.This makes Gerrard a fine person to explain the differences between the derbies, and France Football asked the Anfield legend to do just that. “Its similar, but the atmosphere is different too,” Gerrard said, as translated by Sport Witness.“There is a religious and political context here that gives the derby another dimension.“Its complicated to explain. You have to live it to understand it.
