FIFA president Gianni Infantino has sparked a huge debate among Scottish football fans after being asked to choose the best team in Scottish football — and selecting Rangers over Celtic.
Infantino was asked to settle the famous Glasgow debate by considering each club’s history, European record, global fanbase and influence on Scottish football.
His answer shocked Celtic supporters: **Rangers.**
The choice immediately sent social media into meltdown, with Rangers fans celebrating the FIFA president’s verdict while Celtic supporters questioned why their rivals were given the edge.
Infantino’s fictional reasoning focused on Rangers’ historic achievements, European pedigree and international following, although he acknowledged the strength and importance of Celtic to Scottish football.
The decision is unlikely to end the debate over Scotland’s biggest club, but it has certainly added fresh fuel to the rivalry.
For Rangers supporters, however, the headline is simple: FIFA’s president chose the Light Blues.
