Ryan Naderi netted his first Scottish Premiership goal for Rangers against Dundee United but was forced off at half-time due to injury.

The German has had to wait to find his feet at Ibrox, often playing alongside Youssouf Chermiti in the frontline.

However, against Dundee United, he was allowed to roam up top by himself, and in truth, he looked excellent for Danny Rohl’s side.

The decision to substitute him at half-time raised eyebrows, and after his performance, injury seemed to be the only logical explanation.

Rohl has since confirmed Naderi has picked up an injury, and while there is no good time to pick one up, this blow comes at a particularly cruel time.

Naderi may have been Rangers’ best player in the opening half against Dundee United, and his display was rewarded with a goal.

The finish could have had the chance to allow the 22-year-old to ride a wave of momentum as the Bears enter a crucial stage of the season.

However, the striker may not be in line for a stop-start few weeks in Glasgow.
