MOTHERWELL must be sick of the sight of Kenny Miller as the striker proved to be the difference between the sides for the second time in seven days.
The veteran striker popped up 18 minutes from time to poke the ball over the line at Fir Park and help put Rangers back into second spot in the Premiership. Emerson Hyndman shone on his first start for the Light Blues and the 20-year-old topped it off with a well taken goal on 87 minutes to make sure of the three points for the Gers.
It was an eventful afternoon which saw Rangers down to 10 men after just four minutes when Michael O’Halloran was shown red for a rash high challenge. But the Steelmen too had to compete for most of the game missing a man when Scott McDonald got his marching orders for a tackle on goalscorer Miller on 26 minutes.
