Livingston goalkeeper Shamal George has admitted that the Lions were hoping to reduce Rangers to 10-men during Saturday’s opening day defeat.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side claimed a 2-1 win at the Tony Macaroni Arena but were trailing for the majority of the game.
The hosts led through Joel Nouble’s fifth minute opener and the striker was causing the Gers defence all sorts of problems. Aside from his delicate chip over Jon McLaughlin, he was proving too hot to handle as John Souttar, Connor Goldson and Glen Kamara were all booked for fouls on the striker inside the opening 45 minutes.
