Rangers secured all three points against St Mirren in a narrow 1-0 victory in the Scottish Premiership, keeping their title ambitions firmly on track.

The match was a hard-fought affair, with Rangers having to work diligently to break down a resilient St Mirren side that arrived at Ibrox determined to cause an upset.

St Mirren were disciplined and well-organised throughout, making it difficult for Rangers to find clear openings in the early stages of the game.

Rangers gradually asserted their dominance as the match progressed, controlling possession and pushing St Mirren deeper into their own half.

The only goal of the game proved to be the decisive moment, separating two sides who both showed genuine quality and competitive edge across the ninety minutes.

St Mirren had chances of their own and were not simply content to defend, making this a genuinely competitive contest rather than a one-sided affair.

Rangers’ defensive organisation was equally important to the result, with the backline holding firm whenever St Mirren looked to threaten on the counter-attack.

The victory extends Rangers’ points tally in the Scottish Premiership and maintains pressure on their rivals at the top of the table heading into the next round of fixtures.

Both managers will take something from the performance, with St Mirren showing they can compete with the top sides despite ultimately leaving Glasgow without a point.

Rangers will look to build momentum from this result as the Scottish Premiership season continues to intensify in the weeks ahead.

For St Mirren, the performance will offer encouragement even without the reward of points, and they will be keen to bounce back quickly in their upcoming fixtures.

The Scottish Premiership title race remains compelling, and this narrow Rangers win is another reminder of just how fine the margins are at the top of Scottish football.
