THIS was more like it from Rangers. It wasn’t a giant leap in the right direction, but it was certainly a merited and much-needed stride forward when it was needed most.
The wounds inflicted in the Champions League have cut deep this season, but it is Premiership ones that should concern Giovanni van Bronckhorst most. Those will ultimately prove fatal to his position if there are many more of them and stumbling at home to Aberdeen would have been a significant setback.
That nightmare scenario was avoided, though. The victory wasn’t without its minor issues but the search for positives was far easier this time around as goals from Antonio Colak, John Lundstram, James Tavernier and Alfredo Morelos secured the points that temporarily reduced the deficit at the top of the table.
