Joe Aribo grab late assist to help Rangers beat Aberdeen

Super Eagles’ star player, Joe Aribo, grabbed a late assist to help Rangers beat Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, keeping their title aspirations alive.

Super sub Kemar Roofe scored the game-winning goal as Rangers conquered Aberdeen 1-0 at Ibrox to draw level on points with Celtic at the top of the Premiership.

On the 150th anniversary of the Glasgow club’s establishment, it seemed as if they might experience a major blow in their title defence as Jim Goodwin’s Dons drilled down and limited the Glasgow club to few clean opportunities.

Roofe came off the bench in the 78th minute and delivered three minutes later to calm the home crowd and put pressure on their city rivals, who willΒ travel to Livingston later today, where they haven’t won since 2007.

For a long period of time in the game, Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team was disappointed, but they ended up finding the breakthrough. Within the final ten minutes, Kemar Roofe grabbed the game’s lone goal.

Aberdeen improved significantly from their performance against Hearts last midweek, but the defeat keeps the Pittodrie club in tenth place.
