Match Trivia

At Ibrox Park, estimated attendance 11,000, drawings (gate and stands) £269. Although doing most of the attacking the Rangers were never like scoring in the first half-hour. Rennie indeed having to save oftener than Young. Then Bennett forced a corner from which Livingstone scored, and A Smith followed with a second goal, Rangers leading by 2 goals to 0 at halftime. Motherwell played a very plucky game in the second half, and scored through Tait, while they also had a penalty kick, which Rennie saved. J Smith scored the third goal for the Rangers from Bennett’s centre
