Shamal George admits there was no chance of him reaching James Tavernier’s fabulous free-kick.
But the Livingston keeper fully believes a European slot is within touching distance for Davie Martindale’s men. For the second time this season, George found himself flailing as a Tavernier set-piece soared past him during Rangers’ comfortable 3-0 win at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
The Ibrox skipper swept home into the postage-stamp corner to give Gers the win on the opening day of the season and repeated the trick on Saturday, this time swinging over the wall into the opposite side. But George reckons his side should have known better than to allow the Ibrox skipper to pick his spot having been pre-warned. The Livi No.1 said: “He’s done it twice now against me with two free-kicks. Ridiculous. That’s why he’s one of the best with dead-balls in the league.
