Rangers beat St Mirren 2-0 to move within 1 point of Celtic
What's new: Rangers stretched their unbeaten run to 12 matches in all competitions, with 10 wins in that span.
Rangers closed to within one point of Scottish Premiership leader Celtic with a 2-0 win at St Mirren, extending their unbeaten run in all competitions to 12 matches. Ryan Naderi put Derek McInnes’s side ahead from the penalty spot after 18 minutes, and returning captain Dan Neil doubled the lead just after the hour with a deflected shot. The result answered recent away draws at Dundee and Hearts, though Rangers again left chances untaken. BBC Sport noted concerns about a lack of control and finishing edge despite Rangers’ strong form. Celtic later restored a four-point lead at the top with a 1-0 home win over Kilmarnock, leaving the title race tight going into the international break.
