The fallout from Glasgow Rangers’ weekend defeat is still simmering.

Steven Gerrard’s Rangers slipped to a 1-0 loss to Livingston on Sunday, a defeat which has shone a spotlight on the team’s poor away form in the league.

Livingston forward Lee Miller has now had some harsh words for Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos, accusing him of lacking class.

He says that Morelos, along with teammate Daniel Candeias, refused to shake hands after the final whistle with their opponents.

He told The Mail: “Morelos is a quality act as a player. But he’s got to take it and show respect by shaking hands at the end of the game. That part of it he lacked.

“To be fair, he wasn’t the only Rangers player. Candeias refused to shake hands as well.

“It’s a total respect thing. Morelos is still young, of course, but he’s got a lot to learn when things don’t go his way.”

Former Scotland forward Miller added he felt the actions were ‘disgraceful’ and ‘unprofessional’ as he blasted the Rangers men.

Rangers were frustrated at failing to win and build on their recent good home form.

They slipped from second to sixth in the table over the weekend, with Celtic climbing back above them.
