Lafferty hits back at Samaras
Lafferty struck the opening goal in Sunday's 3-0 victory against Dundee United as Rangers clinched the Scottish Premier League title by four points.
Samaras had claimed last week that Rangers would be unworthy champions as Celtic played the better football.
But Lafferty had the last laugh as Celtic finished their season with a third blank in four games to draw with Hearts as Rangers rounded off their SPL season in style.
"I thought the way we went about our business at Tannadice was great and that we played like champions," the 21-year-old said.
"Georgios Samaras said Celtic were the ones who played better football but at the end of the day, we're the ones who have ended up as champions."
Lafferty believes the title victory can be the first of many after Rangers stopped Celtic claiming four in a row.
"This is the kind of moment you play football for and it's great to be a part of it all," Lafferty told the Gers' official website.
"It's just great that we've come out on top. It's a really amazing feeling. My family were all watching the game back home and I know they'll be proud of me.
"This is a moment we'll all really enjoy and I've no doubt this can be the first of many championships we get. I definitely feel that's the case."
