Rangers 2 Motherwell 3 - Well deal Gers title setback with thrilling last-gasp Ibrox win

Emmanuel Longelo’s deflected strike gave Motherwell a dramatic 3-2 win against Rangers to deal a blow to the Gers’ William Hill Premiership title hopes.

Midfielder Lukas Fadinger fired the superior Steelmen ahead in the 16th minute before Longelo added a second in the 25th after the Gers were cut open again to the fury of the home support.

The Govan side had fought back from two down in their previous game against Falkirk to win 6-3 but the Steelmen looked more likely to add than concede.

Danny Rohl changed personnel and tactics at the interval and Youssef Chermiti reduced the deficit in the 51st minute before the striker and Nico Raskin were involved in drawing the Light Blues level in the 70th minute, with the Belgian midfielder getting the final touch.

However, in the final minute of normal time, Longelo’s drive came off the head of Ibrox defender Emmanuel Fernandez and ended up in the back of the net to give the Steelmen the victory and leave Rangers in third place with four fixtures remaining.
