On the stroke of half time George extended Rangers lead, making it 3-0 but in two minutes into added time Pillars pulled a goal back through Mohammed. Despite the win Rangers are still bottom in the league table on 17 points but with three games in hand. Pillars remain 12th on the log with 24 points.
