Brian Laudrup reckons Michael Beale's Rangers response to Malik Tillman's goal against Partick proves the club is in good hands.
Beale instructed his players to let the Jags equalise at Ibrox after Tillman had won possession and put the hosts 2-1 up after Partick had tried to give possession back to their opponents. That provoked a furios response from the Jags players, who angrily confronted the American.
But Scott Tiffoney was allowed to run through unopposed from kick-off and score to restore parity, then everyone got on with what was a thrilling Scottish Cup tie. An own goal saw Rangers through to the quarter-finals, where they will host Raith Rovers following Monday evening's draw. But more important than progressing, as far as Laudrup is concerned, is how Rangers conduct themselves, and insists Beale is already onto a winner in that regard. He wrote in his Daily Mail column: "Michael Beale put fairness first. And protected his own player at the same time. To me, it was a class act by a manager who is leading Rangers in the right manner.
