Rangers new boy Eros Grezda played for 45 minutes for the reserves.
Rangers are waiting for their late swoop for attacker Eros Grezda to pay off.
The former Osijek winger arrived at Ibrox after a spell out injured, and he has only been able to contribute as a late substitute so far.
Grezda offered a sign on Monday that he is ready for a bigger opportunity.
The Albanian winger scored in Rangers’ under-20s win over Motherwell, a 6-2 victory.
Rangers substituted Grezda at half-time, a sign they may be looking to preserve him for this week’s League Cup game.
Rangers face Championship league leaders Ayr at Ibrox, and will be looking to maintain their impressive home form.
They also need to rotate their side, ahead of a tricky game away to Livingston at the weekend.
A home match against Ayr an ideal chance to bring Grezda in as a starter, even with the away side’s good form.
Grezda did what was asked of him on Monday, and Rangers were deliberately careful not to over use him.
The winger has the chance to be Rangers’ most exciting and unpredictable attacker.
Fans may get an first proper look at what he is really capable of this week.
