Half-Time Report: Brechin City lead Rangers by two goals at break

Brechin City have stormed into a two-goal lead over Rangers at half time in their Scottish League One clash.

The home side took an early lead when Graham Hay headed home from a corner in the fourth minute.

Brechin doubled their advantage just six minutes later when Jonathan Brown lashed a 20-yard free kick into the top corner as Rangers struggled to get a foothold in the game.

In a feisty first half, no fewer than six players entered the book as Rangers looked for a way back into the game.

In the 25th minute, Jon Daly reduced the deficit with a cool finish, but Lee McCulloch missed a good opportunity to level the scores minutes later.

McCulloch was made to pay for his miss when Alan Trouten pounced on poor Rangers defending to restore his side's two-goal lead in the 35th minute.
