James Tavernier leads Rangers response as they claim huge win over Aberdeen - 3 things we learned

Rangers bounced back from an injury nightmare to seal a huge 4-1 Premiership win against Aberdeen.

The Light Blues were dealt with another injury blow after bright spark Ridvan Yilmaz limped off after 10 minutes. The Ibrox crowds frustration then reached boiling point when Aberdeen struck first after a moment of madness saw the entire Rangers defence freeze, before Connor Barron lashed home. Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men showed character as they fought back with Antonio Colak netting another before John Lundstram fired the home side in front seconds before half time after a Ben Davies cut back.

Into the second half, a James Tavernier inspired display saw the home side dominate. The captain was back to his best with a strong attacking display. The captain scored his side’s third with a header at the back post. He almost killed off the game but missed a penalty awarded after a VAR decision. Rangers continued to push on as the home side looked hungry for more goals and Alfredo Morelos got one late on.
