Rangers kept up the pace with Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic on Sunday afternoon as they beat Hamilton Academical 3-1 on the road.

The Gers saw Celtic hammer Livingston 4-0 on Saturday, so they needed to respond with a win of their own as they headed to New Douglas Park.

Rangers did take an early lead as Ryan Jack continued his fine recent form with yet another goal, before Lewis Smith quickly brought the Accies level.

Ryan Kent hit Rangers back in front before the break, and then added his second and Rangers’ third in injury time, securing a 3-1 win.

Steven Gerrard won’t have been completely happy with a patchy performance, but Rangers did manage to claim all three points and keep the pressure on Celtic.

Some Rangers players really didn’t impress on Sunday afternoon, and midfielder Scott Arfield was one of those as he yet again struggled to really make an impact.

The 31-year-old was influential last season with 12 goals and seven assists, but he’s only hit three goals and two assists this season, with fans a little disappointed with his form.

Some fans branded him ‘anonymous’ against Hamilton, claiming that he looks a shadow of his former self whilst others have concerns about his international commitments with Canada, feeling that’s impacting his Rangers form.
