Rangers beat Kilmarnock as Ryan Naderi had a game to cherish on Saturday.

Ibrox hosted Killie on 10 October in the Scottish Premiership as Derek McInnes looked to pick up from where he left off before the international break.

The Light Blues started an unchanged lineup for the third consecutive game, something that hasn't happened this season.

Naderi scored the opener in the 15th minute before Kevin Kelsy added to the advantage at Ibrox.

Just before half-time, the Czechia international got his second of the game after a shot from Djeidi Gassama deflected off him.

Both sides had chances in the second half, and Nicky Clescenco finally found the back of the net in the 90th minute after the visitors found themselves in a two-on-one, with the game ending 3-1.

Ryan Naderi does more than score goals for Rangers vs Kilmarnock

Naderi made his debut for Czechia in the recent international break after showing fine form at the Gers.

The striker has returned to Ibrox in the same form and it doesn't look like his time with the national team has taken a toll.

Naderi did score multiple goals for the Light Blues against Kilmarnock, but he still put in the work up front.

The 23-year-old's determination to close down defences is second to none in the Glaswegian outfit's team, making him a key cog in McInnes' plans.

The centre-forward made few mistakes and deserves a perfect score.

Derek McInnes has another influential Rangers attacker

Minsu Kim has made an immediate impact at Rangers since signing from Girona.

Whether the South Korea international plays on the right-wing or in the number 10 position, he always finds a way to make things happen.

For a player of Kim's stature, he boasts relatively impressive physicality and had moments where he overpowered some of Kilmarnock's midfielders and defenders.

The 20-year-old's running power was also on show against Killie, as he constantly got in behind the opposition's defence.

Only a goal was missing from Kim's game in the end as the Govan side secured the three points.
