Antonio Colak opened his Rangers goal account but the Light Blues went down to a Tottenham side led by lethal Three Lions star Harry Kane. The new Ibrox hitman gave his side a first half lead in an enthralling friendly clash in Glasgow.
But Kane delivered a deadly second half double to turn it around and seal the win for the English Premier League big guns. Gers suffered their first defeat in pre-season – but there was plenty of optimism for fans as they enjoyed a proper test against the kind of top class side they are hoping to meet in the Champions League.
The league season is creeping closer so Van Bronckhorst rolled out a strong starting line up – which included starts for new recruits Rabbi Matonda, Tom Lawrence, John Souttar and Colak. Malik Tillman also took his Ibrox bow from the bench with the clash coming too soon for £4m arrival Ben Davies.
