Rangers’ Lawrence Shankland looks dejected during the 2-1 defeat
Derek McInnes is still looking for his first win as Rangers manager after Hibernian netted an injury-time winner to triumph 2-1 at Ibrox.
There was nervousness about Rangers in the early stages and Hibs found the opener through Josh Campbell’s 12th-minute penalty, which was awarded by VAR for a foul by Vanja Dragojevic on Jason Kerr.
Rangers, who had 25 shots, got level in the 85th minute when Djeidi Gassama’s low cross was turned in by Hibs’ Miguel Chaiwa.
But there was a late twist to come as Hibernian broke from a corner and Callum Wright’s deflected shot found a way into the far corner.

It capped a miserable first game for McIness at Ibrox, who also saw star striker Youssef Chermiti – subject to a failed bid by Galatasaray for a reported club record fee of £22m – carried off the pitch on a stretcher.
With Celtic and St Mirren both on six points from two Premiership games, Rangers are five points behind and already chasing with McInnes looking for his first win after three matches in the Ibrox hot seat.
