Three Rangers stars are praised by Kilmarnock boss, who calls one of them “unbelievable.”

Rangers overcame a 2-1 deficit at Rugby Park on Wednesday, and Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes was left to lament the crucial contributions of Jack Butland, James Tavernier, and Tom Lawrence.

But in terms of Rangers, Philippe Clement’s team barely prevailed 2-1 away from home against a team that had defeated them on the first day. These three incredibly hard-earned points, however, could still turn out to be a pivotal point in an exciting title race on a night when Celtic reached seventh heaven at home against Dundee.

His two most seasoned campaigners had once again provided those in blue with two tremendous contributions at either end. Jack Butland, who had Kilmarnock ahead 1-0, denied Matty Kennedy, demonstrating just why he has been linked to an England call-up. ensuring that James Tavernier’s most recent accurate free-kick was used to equalize the score rather than cut it in half.

Within the span of only four second-half minutes, however, 1-0 turned 1-2 thanks to Tom Lawrence’s quick, incisive winner at the hour mark.

Butland’s save at 1-0 only serves to highlight his superiority. In the context of the game, that is a pivotal time for the Rangers,” groans McInnes.

The former manager of Aberdeen lauded his team’s performance in Ayrshire and also praised the tenacity and fighting spirit of Clement’s visitors.

“I’ve seen Tavernier’s free kick again, and I like how high he can get it.” Superb,” continues McInnes. “He has consistently performed that for the Rangers. Thus, there are two instances.

Rangers counterpress can be effective in these situations for the third goal. Lawrence receives the ball when it breaks, and it’s a tremendous strike. Three Rangers players are there, and it is obvious that they have contributed significantly to the match.

Despite Brendan Rodgers’ brilliant Hoops team narrowing the deficit in goal differential, Rangers remains two points ahead of Old Firm rivals Celtic at the top of the Premiership table thanks to Lawrence’s strike in the 59th minute.
