Rangers Suffer Defeat to Hibernian as McInnes Seeks First Win

Rangers experienced a disappointing home defeat against Hibernian, losing 2-1 in the Scottish Premiership. This match marked the third consecutive year that Hibernian has won at Ibrox, leaving new Rangers manager Derek McInnes still searching for his first victory.

The match began with Hibernian taking the lead through a penalty by Josh Campbell in the 11th minute, following a foul by Vanja Dragojevic. Despite Rangers' efforts, including a strong performance in the latter part of the game, they were unable to equalize. McInnes expressed frustration over the penalty decision and the overall performance, noting that his team was dominant at times but failed to convert that into goals.

Adding to the team's woes, star striker Youssef Chermiti was injured during the match and had to be carried off on a stretcher. Chermiti, who was the subject of a significant transfer bid from Galatasaray, is considered crucial to Rangers' plans. McInnes confirmed that Chermiti would undergo a scan to assess the extent of his knee injury.
