"But the reigning Scottish champions were caught out early on as Stephen O'Donnell's excellent right-sided cross found Ibrahim Said, who stooped down to head a low header past Kasper Schmeichel 14 minutes in. Nancy's visitors failed to muster a shot on target in the first half, and matters worsened in the 58th minute when Schmeichel's mistake in possession allowed Elliot Watt to convert into an empty net."
"Rangers were made to wait until six minutes before half-time for Thelo Aasgaard to head the opener past Shamal George, following a well-worked short-corner move that resulted in Jayden Meghoma's cross. Another corner routine proved fruitful in the 52nd minute for Rangers as St. Mirren failed to clear before Youssef Chermiti whipped in, and Emmanuel Fernandez volleyed through goalkeeper George's legs."
