Rangers have defeated Ross County in Sunday’s Premiership clash at Dingwall.

Hamza Igamane and Danilo were both on the scoresheet in the first-half to give Philippe Clement’s men a two goal lead at the break.

Captain James Tavernier added a third to secure a 3-0 win in the Highlands.

The victory means the Ibrox side move to within two points of second-placed Aberdeen with a game in hand.

Following on from a 4-1 win away at Nice, 1-0 at St Johnstone and 6-0 victory over Kilmarnock, the comfortable result continues a good run of form for Rangers ahead of a crucial week.

Next up is Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur side at Ibrox before they take on Celtic in Sunday’s League Cup final at Hampden.

Moroccan forward Igamane continued his recent run of good form with an unstoppable strike with only six minutes gone at Dingwall.

Jefté played him in on the edge of the box before he took a touch and fired a powerful strike into the roof of the net to make it 1-0.

Danilo then took advantage of a goalkeeping error to double the lead before half-time.

Jack Hamilton made an effort to clear the ball, but the Brazilian forward closed him down before making a block and turning it into the net to make it 2-0.

There were only five minutes remaining on the clock when Tavernier scored his second goal in two games to make it 3-0 and secure all three points.
