RANGERS RATINGS
ALLAN MCGREGOR 6
Had no chance with either of Malmo’s goals but hardly tested otherwise. Commanded his box well.
JAMES TAVERNIER 6
A decent defensive shift from the skipper and also bombed forward on plenty of occasions. Provided a number of pinpoint deliveries from the right flank.
CONNOR GOLDSON 5
Started the game well when Rangers were on the front foot but looked nervous in the second period. Conned the referee into Bonke Innocent’s red card.
LEON BALOGUN 5
Replaced Filip Helander in the starting line-up but failed to take his chance. Shocking defending for Colak’s second goal and didn’t look overly convincing at the first either.
BORNA BARISIC 6
Slightly off the pace defensively but always looked for the overlap on the left. Played a key role in creating space for Kent in the build up to the opening goal.
STEVEN DAVIS 6
Never got on the ball as much as he would have liked in midfield. Struggled to make a huge impact on proceedings, but can’t be faulted for effort.
SCOTT ARFIELD 6
Battled well in midfield and provided a composed head when on the ball. No real impact in the final third though.
JOE ARIBO 6
Neat and tidy in possession. Showed plenty energy in the middle of the park and always looked forward for a pass.
SCOTT WRIGHT 6
Was given the nod by his manager and performed well in front of a full Ibrox for the first time. Final ball could have been better, but he did bring a spark to Rangers’ attack.
RYAN KENT 7
Looked bright in possession and linked up well with Morelos on the attack. Great delivery into the striker for the opening goal. A couple of wasted efforts in the second half that sailed over the bar.
ALFREDO MORELOS 8
Totally unplayable in the first half. Led the line expertly and topped his display off with a goal that hauled his team back into the game. Drifted out of things in the second half but still looked a threat.
SUBS
FASHION SAKALA (FOR WRIGHT, 63) 5
Looked tricky and sharp when introduced from the bench. His pace caused Malmo problems but ultimately failed to find the back of the net.
IANIS HAGI (FOR ARFIELD, 70) 5
Made an impressive impact when subbed on. Always looked to get on the ball and create as Rangers searched for a route back into the game.
