Despite being frustrated at dropping two points at Parkhead, Mowbray has not given up hope of catching their rivals, who are seven points ahead.[LNB]Mowbray told Sky Sports 3: "We played on the front foot. We pushed them back. I think we felt we had done enough to come away with three points."[LNB]He was frustrated, however, after conceding an equaliser less than three minutes after taking the lead.[LNB]Scott McDonald came off the bench to open the scoring with a 79th-minute header. Lee McCulloch headed in Steven Davis' corner two minutes later.[LNB]Mowbray said his side were aware of the danger posed by Rangers at set pieces and he was "disappointed" that the equaliser came from a corner.[LNB]Asked if Celtic could still catch Rangers, Mowbray said: "Undoubtedly. It's less than a task than they had last year."[LNB]Rangers boss Walter Smith accepted that his side was lucky to come away with a point.[LNB]He said: "We were very fortunate to get a draw. Celtic started the better side."[LNB]Smith said Rangers had "got away" with a point after not offering an attacking threat.[LNB]He added: "Celtic played very well. It was a tough afternoon for a lot of our boys.[LNB]"I felt the second half we did a little bit better. We are delighted to have got a point from a game we should not have. We were not with the pace of the game at all."[LNB][LNB]
