Rangers maintained pressure on Hibs at the top of the SWPL table with a narrow 1-0 victory over Celtic at New Douglas Park.

Kirsty Howat's early goal proved to be the difference between the sides in a tightly contested derby match.

Both sides threatened as the game wore on and Rangers goalkeeper Jenna Fife was forced into a vital diving save to keep Celtic from levelling.

The win, coupled with Hibs and Glasgow City's 2-2 draw earlier on, moves Rangers into second place with two games to play.
