Half-Time Report: Two goals put Rangers on course to maintain 100% record

Gers on course to maintain 100% record

Rangers are on course to maintain their 100% record under Mark Warburton as they head into half time with a 2-0 lead over Raith Rovers in the Scottish Championship.

It took the Gers just four minutes to storm into an early lead, skipper Lee Wallace curling a shot into the bottom corner after Martyn Waghorn flicked a free kick into his path.

Rangers were utterly dominant in the opening stages, causing Raith all kinds of problems through Arsenal loanee Gedion Zelalem and skilful youngster Nathan Oduwa, who is on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.

They combined in the 27th minute, allowing Zelalem to leave his marker behind and beat Raith goalkeeper Kevin Cuthbert with a strike that was hacked clear by the last man.

Warburton's men continued to ask all of the questions and they bagged a deserved second on the stroke of half time when Oduwa floated a cross into the box for James Tavernier to smash beyond Cuthbert.

Raith failed to register a single shot at goal in the first half.
