Rangers roll over Kilmarnock 4-0
By: j | November 9th, 2008
Rangers rolled to a strong 4-0 victory over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park today. However the match was definitely the tale of two different halves as prior to the break, the home side had performed admirably, kept the Gers off the scoresheet and put forth a series of aggressive challenges. Just before the half-hour mark Kris Boyd was awarded a penalty and choosing to take it himself, he was denied with a splendid stop by the Killie ‘keeper Allan Combe to the delight of the home faithful.
With the score level at that half, the second act of the match began as the Rangers attacked with a flourish. Five minutes after the restart David Weir headed in a Kevin Thomson corner and only four minutes later Kenny Miller provided Kris Boyd the perfect set-up with the embattled striker doubling the lead. The spirit of the match slowed with the two goal margin the Gers added two late goals to skew the result. With three minutes remaining Kenny Miller added his name to the score-sheet, heading in a Steven Davis cross and Steven Whittaker added a highlight film goal, volleying-in Kirk Broadfoot as time wound down.
The Gers have a short-week and face Motherwell on Wednesday.
