ALEX LOWRY was sent for an immediate scan on his knee after being stretchered off for Rangers B last night.

The midfielder was on the end of a horror tackle by Dumbarton's Ally Love in the closing stages of the 7-0 SPFL Trust Trophy rout.

Lowry had bagged a hat-trick for the development side as they progressed with the thumping win.

But the night was soured with the injury fear for Lowry who made his debut for the Rangers first-team last season.

The Sun now report that Lowry was sent for a scan today to determine the damage done to his knee.

A lengthy period out would be a huge blow to Lowry who just recently recovered from a knock that kept him out of pre-season.

Love launched into the tackle on Lowry from behind as the midfielder was in possession in midfield. The Dumbarton man was cautioned for the tackle.

Rangers B Team boss David McCallum was left furious with the challenge after an impressive win for his side.

He said: "Hard to fully enjoy a brilliant performance when we have a boy whose done so well in distress.

"We are angry with the challenge."
