This is the moment that Rangers fans were soaked by a sprinkler as they watched their team earn a first league victory of the season.

Anti-Russell Martin chants were heard throughout the 98 minutes at the Tony Macaroni as the visitors prevailed 2-1 against Livingston.

James Tavernier had Rangers in a first half lead, before Mo Sylla equalised midway through the second half.

Martin needed a hero to help ease some of the intense pressure mounting on his shoulders, so up stepped substitute Max Aarons to fire home into the bottom corner at the back post inside stoppage time to seal a first three points of the campaign for the Ibrox club.

The win moved Rangers up to eighth in the Scottish Premiership, with their fans finally having something positive to cheer about.

That wasn't the only talking point of the day though, as a section of the travelling support were SOAKED at the stadium - despite the lovely weather.

Those housed behind the goal to the right of the TV gantry were helpless as water was sprayed in their direction by a sprinkler.

This saw a large section of the crowd - including the Union Bears - drenched, as they continued to sing in defiance.
