Gio van Bronckhorst admits James Sands was fortunate to avoid a red card in their commanding win over Ross County. But over the piece he was delighted with Rangers ' performance that sent them back to the Premiership summit for at least 24 hours.

Malky Mackay was left raging on the touchline when Sands, already on a booking, hauled down County' s Jordy Hiwula on the counter-attack.

He was the last man but referee Don Robertson saw nothing wrong with it and waved for the striker to get back to his feet. The scores were level at the time with John Lundstram 's deflected opener coming moments later.

They went on to rack them up, with an Antonio Colak double and Steven Davis strike sealing a comfortable win. Van Bronckhorst said on Sportsound: "You have to attack well, we did that especially in the first half.
