Not to be // Motherwell 1-2 Rangers

Motherwell made their first return to Hampden in six years and were tasked with taking on Rangers in the semi-final of the Premier Sports Cup. 

With over 8,000 Well fans in attendance, Stuart Kettlewell’s side got off to a great start. Andy Halliday somehow got onto the end of Steve Seddon’s cross to send the Motherwell section of Hampden into rapture.

The Rangers supporters voiced their concerns, and their team came out for the second-half in sharper fashion. Cyriel Dessers levelled the game only minutes into the second period, and Rangers continued to ply pressure onto the Motherwell net.

Aston Oxborough made a number of saves, but Nedim Bajrami would find the winner just ten minutes from time to break Motherwell hearts.

The 8,000 strong supporters stayed behind to show their appreciation of the team’s efforts to get to this stage, and now the Steelmen will take on St Johnstone on Saturday prior to the November international break.
