Rangers player ratings vs Motherwell: Jack Butland atrocious, Youssef Chermiti to fume<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rangers fans quickly lost their voice at Ibrox as Motherwell scored two goals in the first half on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mood in G51 was brilliant before kick-off, but Lukas Fadinger and Emmanuel Longelo gave the visitors a two-goal lead in the opening 25 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Danny Rohl saw his plans immediately falter as Jens Berthel Askou\u2019s team found success and decided to play more on the counter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the Govan side in need of a hero, Youssef Chermiti stepped up to the plate and scored two in 20 minutes, but the Glaswegian outfit\u2019s defensive frailties saw them concede late on as Longelo got his second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rohl caught Jens Berthel Askou off guard with his changes at the break and the German manager will be disappointed his team let the visitors get a late winner in the 3-2 loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jack Butland has stinker for Rangers vs Motherwell<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jack Butland had an evening to forget at Ibrox as he ended up being a liability for the Gers against Motherwell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The English goalkeeper had a nervy start to the game, with his distribution frustrating the home fans in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stats from 3-2 result at Ibrox, as per SofascoreIt can also be argued that the 33-year-old could have done better to stop Fadinger from scoring the Steelmen\u2019s opener, with the shot going low down his side from what was a difficult angle for the midfielder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shot-stopper\u2019s atrocious display undoubtedly affected the Glaswegian outfit and in the end, fans in Govan were left heartbroken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Youssef Chermiti let down by teammates<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chermiti showed glimpses of his talent in the first half, but Rangers lacked the cutting edge in the final third as they looked shaky defensively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rohl made a triple change at the break to swing the tide of the game, with the Portuguese striker taking centre stage at Ibrox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 21-year-old has made a habit of turning up in the big games for the Glaswegian outfit and did exactly that against Motherwell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rangers suffered a shocking 2-3 home defeat to Motherwell at Ibrox on Sunday, April 26, 2026, in a Scottish Premiership clash that has intensified pressure on the Light Blues’ title hopes. Motherwell raced into a 2-0 lead with goals from Lukas Fadinger (16′) and Emmanuel Longelo (25′), before Rangers fought back through Youssef Chermiti (51′) and Nicolas Raskin (70′). However, Longelo struck again in the 90th minute to secure a stunning victory for the visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Former Rangers striker and Sky Sports pundit Kris Boyd was scathing in his post-match analysis, slamming one particular player for “silly mistakes” that proved costly. Boyd highlighted basic errors in possession and defensive lapses that allowed Motherwell to exploit spaces, describing the individual display as unacceptable at this level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It’s embarrassing,” Boyd fumed during his live reaction. “You can’t afford these silly mistakes against any team, let alone when you’re pushing for the title. One player in particular let the side down with poor decision-making and lack of concentration \u2013 that’s the difference in games like this.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The loss leaves Rangers needing to regroup quickly as the season enters its decisive phase. Fans voiced their frustration on social media, echoing Boyd’s call for accountability and sharper focus moving forward. Manager Danny R\u00f6hl faces questions over squad mentality after another disappointing result at home. Boyd’s blunt assessment underscores the fine margins in the Premiership title race, where individual errors continue to haunt the Gers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chermiti had a chance to equalise once more late on, but the Light Blues ended up dropping three points, which the striker will surely be fuming about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
