3 talking points as Rangers end winless run after Antonio Colak double enough to keep Dundee United at bay

Red-hot Antonio Colak bagged a double as Rangers got back to winning ways against Dundee United.

The Croatia hitman was back in the side – and back in the goals as he pounced early in the first and second half to secure Gers a win on the back of three damaging defeats on the spin. The minute’s silence for the Queen before kick-off was hijacked by a section of the travelling support. But there was plenty of drama on the pitch as well as Gers were made to sweat for the points after Liam Smith grabbed one back to set up a nervy final half an hour for Gio van Bronckhorst ’s men.

The Rangers boss sent for the old guard against Napoli in midweek but this time he called on the kids. Youngster Charlie McCann was handed his first league start while teenage defender Leon King got his chance at the back. Alfredo Morelos, James Sands and Steven Davis made way with Colak returning up top. Dundee United were without hitman Steven Fletcher and the Tangerines were right in the thick of it from the first whistle.
