For once, Alfredo Morelos failed to score on Wednesday evening.
He started well and linked up dangerously with his new strike partner, Jermain Defoe, on several occasions.
Shortly after Rangers took the lead, he had a good opportunity to double the advantage.
He got a strong connection on a header from a corner, but it crashed off the upright.
After that, he didn’t get much of a sniff, as the service dried up in the final third.
However, in the build up to the game, a stat emerged on Twitter which showed the extent of his impact so far in a Rangers shirt.
Since making his league debut for Rangers back in August 2017, he has scored 26 SPL goals.
That’s more than any other player over the same period.

Despite Celtic’s dominance in terms of silverware, he is still the stand out marksman.
While he didn’t net in his first outing away at Motherwell last season, he produced eight goals in his first seven matches and hasn’t looked back since.
Since his arrival, he has also accumulated an impressive ten assists.
Therefore, he’s been directly involved in 36 league goals.
He is some asset from Steven Gerrard and despite the arrival of Jermain Defoe, undoubtedly, still Rangers’ talisman.
