Motherwell 2, Rangers 2: Rangers fightback denies Well famous win

Motherwell were denied a first win over Rangers at Fir Park in 22 years as the Ibrox side fought back to draw.

James McFadden was the winner the last time the Steelmen beat the Light Blues in ML1, back in 2002, but there were no new heroes to go into the history books.

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos put Motherwell ahead in 14 minutes, with Tawanda Maswanhise doubling that lead on the half-hour.

But Igamane climbed off the bench to score two second-half goals.

Motherwell's first-half lead was no more than Motherwell deserved, against a Rangers side that looked like it was going through the motions. Goalkeeper Aston Oxborough barely had a save to make.

But Rangers came roaring back at their hosts in the second half, with Motherwell twice denied goals by VAR, with boss Stuart Kettlewell sent to the stand.

Motherwell boss Stuart Kettlewell made three changes to the side that lost 4-0 at Celtic Park on Boxing day, as Liam Gordon, Andy Halliday and Stamatelopoulos came in for Kofi Balmer, Tom Sparrow and Tony Watt.

Rangers boss Philippe Clement made seven changes to the side that lost at St Mirren on the same day. Robin Propper, Ridvan, Nicolas Raskin, Kieran Dowell, Oscar Cortes, Danilo and Cyriel Dessers replaced Leon Balogun, Jefte, Connor Barron, Nedim Bajrami, Ianis Hagi, Vaclav Cerny and Igamane.

Diomande fired just over from distance as Rangers threatened in the first minute.

Oscar Cortes sent Dessers racing in on a cross in seven minutes, but the striker's shot was well saved by Oxborough.

Maswanhise went on a run down the right wing in 12 minutes, but his curling shot was no problem for Jack Butland in the Rangers goal.

Motherwell took the lead in 14 minutes when Robin Propper's attempted clearance fell to Maswanhise and
