Rangers drew 1-1 with Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership after taking the lead. Emmanuel Longelo equalized in the 87th minute. Russell Martin criticized his team for a lack of aggression and bravery, stating they were outrun and outfought. He highlighted ongoing mentality issues and noted the presence of egos among players, suggesting these factors hindered the team's performance. Despite feeling fortunate to take a point from the match, Martin expressed pride in their midweek Champions League win but disappointment in Saturday’s display.
‘I think we were lucky to get a point. We were nowhere near where we need to be. And I'm extremely disappointed and hurt by that. They were braver than us. They were more aggressive than us.’
‘This is not me blaming the players at all; I think it's a problem the club has had over the last few years. When it's going well, it's fine, and when it's not, there's a problem. It’s not together enough on the pitch.’
‘We had two men on the pitch today that want to do what they want to do. When you want to just jog around and do what you want to do, there's a big problem. So some of them have to drop their ego.’
