Rangers Move into Second Place with Convincing Win over Aberdeen
Rangers secured a 2-0 victory over Aberdeen, with goals from Thelo Aasgaard and James Tavernier, to close the gap on Scottish Premiership leaders Hearts to three points. The win, their fifth consecutive victory, was marked by a strong performance from Danny Röhl's side, who overcame difficult conditions at Pittodrie. Aasgaard's opening goal came midway through the first half, following a clever short-corner routine, before Tavernier sealed the win with a penalty in the 74th minute. The victory saw Rangers leapfrog Celtic into second place on goal difference, albeit having played a game more. Despite the win, the match was marred by an incident involving Nicolas Raskin, who sprayed water at a home fan after the final whistle, prompting criticism from pundits.
