Rangers fail to overtake Celtic as diabolical defending in Dundee sees top spot slip away – 5 talking points

Rangers failed to reclaim top spot in the Scottish Premiership after being held to a 2-2 draw by Dundee at Dens Park. The result brought manager Derek McInnes' side's seven-game winning run to an end following two costly defensive errors. Bradley Fink opened the scoring for Dundee before Badredine Bouanani equalized. Nico Raskin then put Rangers ahead with a 30-yard strike, but Callum Jones capitalized on an error to level the match.

Mark Pirie noted that despite Rangers having a free week to prepare, their defensive unit faltered under pressure from Steven Pressley's side. Lone striker Ryan Naderi struggled to make an impact, while Bouanani impressed on his first start after arriving on loan from Stuttgart. Rangers now await the result between rivals Celtic and Hearts having missed the opportunity to take the league lead.
