Rangers 4, Dundee 0, Ibrox Stadium, Ladbrokes Premiership, 15-September-18

Dundee lost 4-0 at Ibrox  last Saturday the hosts scored in the first 3 minutes and the second followed on 13 minutes. It was a good start by Rangers who's pace going forward was too much for the Dundee midfield. 

Dundee did have a wee spell but failed to take their chances, they really should have done much better but maybe the players need a confident boost. Rangers sealed the points with a third goal right on half-time when Darren O'Dea gave away a penalty. 



Second half and it was a better performance from Dundee but they failed to attack more with Rangers missing a few chances. They did score with 10 minutes to go to make the final score 4-0.

It was always a tough ask for Dundee to get the points today. I was hoping for maybe a point but losing a goal early killed any chance  of that. Team wise it was good to see Elliot Parish back in the goal he had a good game making some good saves. Darren O'Dea came in but struggled at times he has not got the pace now. Kenny Miller was sent off near the end a straight red following a late mistimed tackle to add to Dundee's woes.

I just hope we can get points in our next three games as it's vital now to kick on. It won't be easy against a good Hibernian side next Saturday at Dens. I will always back my side and it's been a tough start to the season for everyone supporting Dundee this season. It was not a great following that travelled through to Glasgow today.
