Kris Boyd shares reaction after Rangers win v Motherwell
Kris Boyd said that it was a “massive” win on Sky Sports after Rangers earned a 2-1 victory against Motherwell on Sunday (16 October) at Fir Park.
The Gers needed a reaction after their horrendous performance in the midweek where they lost 7-1 against Liverpool in the Champions League.
A reaction was required, and the Bears got the results they wanted, though, in terms of performance, it was still below their normal level.
“Rangers have held on for a massive three points considering what happened in midweek,” said Boyd, as quoted by Sky Sports.
Sensational goal
After a dull 0-0 first half, the game suddenly burst into life, after a moment of sublime brilliance from Tillman.
Picking the ball around the half-line mark, he drove the ball forward and finished it off with great composure.
The defence just kept watching his mazy run and allowed him to go into the box, with no one daring to tackle.
Tillman, who joined in the summer transfer window from Bayern Munich on loan, has been inconsistent so far, but no one can doubt his vast potential. This is really what he is capable of.
When Lundstram added another to make it 2-0, it felt like the game was truly over. However, Stuart McKinstry’s goal from a free-kick, which could have been a cross as well, ensured that we have a nervy end to the game.
Considering the pressure surrounding Van Bronckhorst after their heavy defeat against Liverpool, this is indeed a huge victory for the club.
With the Champions League now out of the window, Rangers have to win the Premiership this season.
