Rangers moved into first place in the Scottish Premiership for the first time this season following a 4-1 victory against Kilmarnock. The Ibrox club took advantage of Celtic's 3-1 defeat at Heart of Midlothian to secure a two-point lead at the summit. According to Sky Sports, the win marks a significant shift in the title race with seven games remaining in the campaign.
Head coach Danny Rohl stated he is convinced his squad can maintain their position until the end of the season. Speaking after the match, Rohl confirmed he will not watch the matches of his title rivals, per STV News. He insisted that his players must focus entirely on their own performances rather than external results.
Fabio Silva and John Lundstram were among the scorers as the Glasgow side overturned an early deficit. The result leaves the title's destination in Rangers' hands as they prepare for the upcoming Old Firm derby at Ibrox, according to The Guardian.
