Emmanuel Fernandez decided the game in the 35th minute with a towering header, sealing a 1-0 win for Rangers over Hibernian at Ibrox.
From Dujon Sterling's cross following a corner, the defender rose above his marker and glanced his header into the roof of the net (35.).
After the restart, he dominated his box, heading away a stream of crosses and stepping in front of runners as Hibs pushed for a leveller.
Fernandez finished with 10 clearances, five aerials won and seven possessions won, plus 33 of 38 passes completed, numbers that underlined his control under pressure.
Because Rangers' set-piece delivery repeatedly asked questions and the Hibees struggled to disrupt his positioning, his presence kept the visitors at arm's length in key moments.
Rangers rise from fourth to third in the Scottish Premiership and visit Hearts next. Hibs travel to Dundee United.
