Standout star settles it late for Motherwell at Ibrox

Emmanuel Longelo won it for Motherwell in the 90th minute with a composed right-footed finish, sealing a 3-2 victory at Rangers. His brace defined a frantic second half.

He had earlier put the visitors in control, arriving at the back post to steer in Tom Sparrow's cross (25.).

He stayed threatening, seeing a drive blocked from the left (36.). Later he flashed wide (87.). Then he timed his run on a counter, meeting Stephen O'Donnell's pass to decide it (90.).

Longelo finished with four attempts, two on target, plus two tackles and three recoveries, his direct running from the left repeatedly forcing Rangers' back line to retreat.

With space opening down that flank as Motherwell broke from deep, his first touch and acceleration into the box turned transitions into clear chances.

Motherwell visit Falkirk next. Rangers travel to Hearts.
