Rangers staged an incredible recovery at Falkirk, keeping their Scottish Premiership title hopes alive with five games remaining. Despite starting the day in third place after Hearts and Celtic's wins on Saturday, Danny Röhl's side found themselves 2-0 down courtesy of Ben Broggio and Finn Yeats' goals for the Bairns. However, Tochi Chukwanui's strike before halftime sparked a Rangers resurgence, with Yousssef Chermiti and Nico Raskin scoring in a blistering second-half start to take a 3-2 lead.
Bojan Miovski added a fourth, before Falkirk's Calvin Miller reduced the deficit from the penalty spot after James Tavernier fouled Filip Lissah. Rangers' title credentials were on full display as Miovski and Chermiti scored again, putting the game out of reach. The victory propelled Rangers back into second place, a point behind leaders Hearts, with Celtic a further two points adrift.
This marked only the second time this season that the top three teams in the Premiership had all won on the same weekend. Chukwanui's contentious goal just before halftime ignited the comeback, with the home side anticipating a goal kick after Raskin's cross had curled over the goalmouth. The introduction of Bojan Miovski for Mikey Moore at the break proved pivotal, as Gassama won the ball on the edge of the Falkirk box, and his low cross was flicked home by Chermiti.
Rangers' increased threat paid off in the 52nd minute when Raskin ran round the outside of Aasgaard and hit the Norwegian's pass first time into the far corner. Chermiti missed another chance before Raskin set up Miovski to bundle home with a cross from the left.
Falkirk were handed a lifeline in the 70th minute when Miller netted from the spot after Tavernier had brought down Filip Lissah. However, Raskin was involved again when Rangers restored their two-goal cushion, bursting forward before Chermiti netted after Gassama's shot was blocked. The Belgian midfielder was eventually booked for a clash with Dylan Tait after earlier escaping yellow cards for a clear pull and embracing Rangers fans after his goal. Miovski sealed the win two minutes from time, converting Oliver Antman's low cross from close range.
Rangers head coach Danny Röhl expressed his satisfaction with the team's reaction after a difficult start, highlighting the strong bond between the players and supporters. Röhl reflected on the club's progress, noting the significant improvement since his arrival, and emphasized the importance of maintaining their current trajectory.
