Gayfield stunners

A COMFORTABLE win for Rangers ensured a happy return to Gayfield for former Lichtie Andy Webster last night.

Arbroath took the lead six minutes before the interval with a stunning 40-yard strike from Barry Sellars.

Not to be outdone by their lower division hosts, Rangers pulled off a near carbon copy three minutes into the second period to level—Charlie Adam the scorer with his own 40-yard gem.

Rangers added to their tally on 57 minutes through John Fleck who netted from16 yards.

The visitors were hungry for more and they made it three in the 79th minute when Aaron Niguez knocked the ball home from close range.

The Gers rounded off a deserved win five minutes from time when Niguez bagged his second of the night.

Attendance—605.
