Rangers finished off 2022 with a comfortable win over Motherwell at Ibrox as they prepare for a huge New Year Old Firm clash.
Michael Beale brought Borna Barisic back into the fold after the Croatian helped his country onto a third placed finish in Qatar. The World Cup star wasted no time in making an impact when he whipped a perfect cross for Alfredo Morelos to convert inside the opening exchanges. Beale also gave a surprise start to Alex Lowry, with the young talent given a chance to impress before the visit of Celtic on Monday.
Ben Davies and Connor Goldson continued to gel ahead of the pivotal derby day as Beale made it four wins out of four. The Ibrox men made a stuttering start, but goals from Morelos and Goldson soon had them showing their dominance. The points were wrapped up in the second half thanks to Malik Tillman, with the tricky Bayern Munich loan signing continuing to impress under Beale.
