SCOTT ARFIELD’S first professional hat-trick was the difference as Rangers turned in another professional and comfortable performance to defeat Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon.
Controlling the game throughout, Arfield struck twice in the first-half and once in the second half to ensure Gers made it back-to-back wins following Wednesday’s win over Hearts.
From the side which so impressively cruised by the Jambos on Wednesday, out went the suspended Ryan Kent while Joe Worrall dropped to the bench, with their places in the XI taken by Daniel Candeias and Nikola Katic.
