The pressure increased over Russell Martin after a mid -week defeat against Genk in the Europa League. The Rangers were looking for their first victory in the league of the season this afternoon against Livingston, and the Gaffer could now have a relief sigh, thanks to a winner of the Max Aarons substitute injury.
Below are the rangers players qualified in their 2-1 victory against Livingston.
He denied Stevie May from a very close range around the brand of the hour. But I could have done little to prevent Mohamed Sylla from finding the network moments later.
His impressive volley won the Rangers an advantage in the middle of the first half. However, he was not punished for missing a shot a few minutes later, since the substitute Aarons scored a injury winner.
It seemed nervous while defending parts of sets. I should have done much better during Sylla’s goal. His lack of positioning allowed the defender to attack the Cross of Adam Montgomery and find the goal.
The Canadian also had anxious moments against long balls and pieces. Martin must be blamed for the lack of defensive organization. He was removed by Aaron shortly after Sylla’s goal.
He kept winning duels on the left. It was perfect with its tacle and challenges. He made some Maurading races, and played several passes in the last third. He affirmed step to Mikey Moore at the end of the game.

It was restored to the initial XI, replacing Mikey Moore. He attended Tavernier for his acrobatic finish at the beginning of the game. It was replaced by Youssef Chermiti in search of the winning goal.
He worried the hosts with their rapid races, dribbles and striking feet game. But its lack of the final product remains a concern, particularly after such a scorching start for the career of its Rangers.
I lost a couple of goals opportunities. Presented as Targetman and did not have many touches while heading the attack.
