Kemar Roofe showed why Michael Beale talked up his importance to Rangers with the opening goal in a 2-0 Premiership win over Ross County in Dingwall. The Gers manager spoke on Friday about the 30-year-old striker and attacker Tom Lawrence being key to his plans this season despite nine new signings and Roofe, starting for the first time in 16 months, repaid that faith after 22 minutes with a close-range strike.
James Tavernier added a delightful second four minutes later with a clever finish which ultimately took the three points south. The relatively stress-free victory was a boost for Beale’s side ahead of their crucial Champions League play-off game against PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday night.
