Rangers: Van Bronckhorst facing key 'problem' in title race

Rangers‘ victory over Borussia Dortmund will count for nothing if Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side end up finishing second in the Scottish Premiership, according to Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge.

The Glasgow giants pulled off one of their finest ever European results to beat Dortmund 6-4 on aggregate following a 2-2 draw at Ibrox last Thursday but dropped more points in their pursuit of a second consecutive Scottish Premiership title on Sunday.

However, their form in the league has been worrying, with Van Bronckhorst’s side collecting just eight points from a possible 15 available. In total, Rangers have now dropped 11 points from eight games since the resumption of Scottish football since the winter break.

As a result, the Ibrox outfit have gone from leading Celtic by six points in the race to the title, to trailing them by three points.

That gap could have been five had their Old Firm rivals not slipped up at Hibs on Sunday, with Rangers unable to take advantage after they squandered a two-goal lead to draw with Motherwell.

He told GIVEMESPORT: “The problem for Rangers is that they’re drawing too many games, especially away from home.

“The Dortmund games were great results, but if they look back on this season, and they finish second, they’re not really going to be talking about beating Dortmund, they’re going to talk about losing the league.”
