Rangers continued their impressive form with a commanding 4-0 victory over Ross County at Ibrox Stadium on Sunday, February 2, 2025. This win marks their fourth consecutive league triumph, showcasing the team’s resurgence under manager Philippe Clement.
The match saw Ianis Hagi shine, netting two goals in the first half. His first came in the 18th minute, capitalizing on a rebound after Vaclav Cerny’s shot was parried by Ross County goalkeeper Jordan Amissah. Hagi doubled the lead in the 25th minute with a free-kick that deflected off a defender, leaving Amissah wrong-footed.
Defender John Souttar, making his return to the starting lineup after a spell out injured, added the third goal in the 36th minute. He latched onto a header from Nicolas Raskin’s flick during a corner, slotting the ball into the net from close range.
Captain James Tavernier sealed the victory in the 79th minute, converting Rangers’ first league penalty of the season after Cyriel Dessers was fouled in the box.
This dominant performance not only continues Rangers’ momentum in the Scottish Premiership but also reflects the renewed faith in manager Philippe Clement. Just three weeks ago, the atmosphere was tense with fan protests, but recent successes, including progression to the last 16 of the Europa League, have rejuvenated the club’s spirit.
Rangers have now lost just once in their last 11 matches, a defeat to Manchester United, and have won seven consecutive home games, scoring 20 goals in the process.
As the transfer window approaches its conclusion, Clement has expressed a desire to further strengthen the squad. So far, the only addition has been Rafael Fernandes on loan from Lille. Discussions with the board are ongoing to secure additional signings before the deadline.
Looking ahead, Rangers aim to maintain their momentum as they continue to chase league leaders Celtic, who currently hold a 10-point advantage. With the team’s current form and renewed confidence, the remainder of the season promises to be an exciting journey for the Ibrox faithful.
