Jack Butland has laughed at footage shared by Djeidi Gassama following Rangers‘ sensational win against Falkirk on Sunday.

With Hearts winning their final match heading into the split, Danny Rohl’s side needed a win as they made the trip to Falkirk.

After initially falling to a two-goal deficit, the travelling Gers would turn things around in wonderful style on the road, with a 6-3 scoreline to complete a fantastic afternoon.

Youssef Chermiti and Bojan Miovski would both net braces, while midfielders Tochi Chukwuani and Nicolas Raskin further piled on the damage.

With the Govan outfit sitting a point behind the league leaders heading into the season’s crunch point, spirits seem high in the dressing room – highlighted by wideman Gassama’s antics during Sunday’s win.

Over the course of the weekend, Rohl’s side will have initially sniffed a chance to climb to the top of the standings before the split, with Hearts falling a goal behind against Motherwell.

The Jambos would complete the turnaround at Tynecastle, with the now four-point gap making a win imperative for Rangers.

They got it done in the end, cutting it back to one point with five games to go.

Taking to Instagram after the match, winger Gassama would say: “What a game!! Thanks for your incredible support.”

And in the post, it would be the final slide showcasing a rather different goal celebration that his teammates could not help but love.

Goalkeeper Butland would join in on the fun, reacting with multiple laughing emojis, while goalscorer Miovski replied with one providing dance moves.

Heading into the split, the spirits seem high at Ibrox, and this could be exactly what Rangers need as they fight for the title.

Rangers to carry on showing character amid intense title race

After a dismal start to the campaign under Russell Martin, the Gers have fought back sensationally under Rohl and now find themselves well in the title race with five matches to go.

In recent weeks, Rohl’s side have shown serious character to bounce back from the two disappointments against Celtic, while a combined 14 goals in three games have aided their goal difference massively.

The current project is one that the squad certainly seem to be buying into, and that character will prove crucial as they prepare to navigate a period that will decide the outcome of what has been a remarkable title race.

League leaders Hearts have remained unflappable throughout the season and have always been able to bounce back from adversity, as seen once again with their recent win against Motherwell.

But, the Gers do not appear ready to back down themselves.

And with the title looking likely to go to the wire, Rohl will need his squad full of character, ready and prepared as they look to win the league for the first time since 2021.
