    That was comprehensive today. Clearly Derek McInnes' gameplan was to contain Rangers. He lost the goal in the first half and then had to go for it and that when Rangers' opened them up. On the face of it it was two goals from penalty kicks and none from open play

    Aberdeen will have to be better next week against Celtic. Derek McInnes will be looking for his team to improve on their home form which hasn't been good this season. They won’t be looking forward to Celtic hoping for a title party at Pittodrie next week

    Alex Johnson: Hits him in the face, 100% a penalty. Doesn't matter how light he hits him, his hand is all over Katic's face

    Joe Lewis goes the same way as James Tavernier's spot kick. But it’s so accurate. Even with his [Joe Lewis'] large frame and stretch he’s no where near it. Really well taken by Tavernier

    GOAL Rangers 2-0 Aberdeenpublished at 79 mins

    James Tavernier

    A second goal for Rangers, a second penalty and a second strike for James Tavernier. Once again, the Dons feel aggrieved about the decision but Tavernier all but seals the points from the spot.

  14. PENALTY TO RANGERSpublished at 78 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Aberdeen

    Referee Don Robertson points to the spot after Nikola Katic falls to the turf holding his face after contesting an aerial challenge with Andrew Considine.

    It's a second yellow for Considine and he's given his marching orders. The Dons can't believe it.

    Greg Stewart replaces Sam Cosgrove in a final roll of the dice for Aberdeen.

    There’s only one goal in it. Aberdeen only need the one chance. Rangers have given the ball away too much. There’s a way of managing games but I don’t believe it’s by slowing the game down. Rangers should be ahead by more

  17. Rangers cruising to victorypublished at 75 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Aberdeen

    The game is being played at almost testimonial pace. Rangers, a goal to the good courtesy of James Tavernier's penalty, are passing the ball across the pitch with Aberdeen unable to get back into this game.

  19. Rangers press for second goalpublished at 71 mins

    Rangers 1-0 Aberdeen

    Ryan Kent and Steven Davis combine well before trying to play striker Jermain Defoe in on goal but the pass is too heavy and it's a reprieve for the Dons.

  20. Dons 'committed to getting forward'published at 16:30

    Quote Message

    Aberdeen are much more committed to getting forward. Derek McInnes made the changes to encourage them to get up the park and they’re doing well enough, although they haven’t created anything.
