Two goals inside three second half minutes propelled the Light Blues to victory in Tayside, with Fashion Jr. netting his third goal in his last six appearances before Malik Tillman doubled the Gers’ advantage with a well-taken finish.
Speaking to RangersTV after the triumph, Jack reflected on the team’s performance: “In the first half it was a little bit frustrating. I thought we controlled the majority of the game without really making the breakthrough or putting too much pressure on the goalkeeper.
“I think in the second half we got our rewards for how we played in the first half, quickly found spaces and got runners from midfield and off the ball. It was two great goals so I’m delighted with the three points.
“If anything, we’re probably saying at half-time that we want to be a bit more clinical and better in the final third, and that’s including myself and the other the midfielders. The forward-thinking players, we wanted to try and demand more in the final third. In the second half we got that.”
The victory made it five wins and a draw from Michael Beale’s opening six league matches as manager, with Jack highlighting the half-time tweaks from the boss as he looked ahead to further challenges for the team.
He continued: “It was mostly about pass and run, and make plenty of movements. Obviously, they play three central defenders so it was important to move their centre-backs about to create space for us to go and get the goals. The first goal especially comes from that, and Fashion takes it well.
“We’re delighted to win the game and we move onto next week. We just try and work hard in training every day and, come the games, we aim to put everything into the game and try to win every individual match. It’s going well so far and we want to keep trying to get better and hopefully we can do that in the coming games.”
