Rangers came from behind to set up a Premier Sports Cup final against Celtic with a 2-1 win over Motherwell at Hampden.
The victory comes as huge relief to Rangers manager Philippe Clement, who went into the match under intense pressure after a midweek defeat at Aberdeen led to him facing calls to be sacked.
The mood among Rangers supporters worsened markedly after former Light Blues midfielder Andy Halliday gave Motherwell the lead at Hampden Park in the 25th minute and the lacklustre Ibrox side were loudly booed off at the interval.
There was improvement in the second half and Gers striker Cyriel Dessers levelled from close range in the 49th minute before attacker Nedim Bajrami fired in the winner in the 81st minute to have the Rangers fans cheering again.
The Ibrox side will face Celtic in the final at the national stadium on December 15 and the Hoops, who along with Aberdeen are nine points ahead of Rangers at the top of the William Hill Premiership, showed their prowess with a 6-0 thumping of the Dons in the other semi-final on Saturday.
Here is how the Rangers and Motherwell players rated out of 10:
17. Vaclav Cerny
Not on the scoresheet but the Czech winger was the undoubted Rangers' matchwinner. The architect for both goals with an incisive pass setting up the leveller before a terrific assist on Bajrami's winner. A constant threat on the right and always wanting the ball. Had he not recovered from injury in time to play at Hampden, Rangers most likely lose this match - 8 | SNS Group
18. Andy Halliday
Real desire to stretch and turn Seddon's cross into the net for Motherwell's opener in an all-action display - although a mark off for apologetically holding his hands up and refusing to celebrate the goal against his former club. It's a semi-final for goodness sake! Ran himself into the ground for the cause - 7 | SNS Group
19. Nedim Bajrami
Seems unable to dictate games from his left-wing position but as shown at Aberdeen in midweek has the quality to make a big impact, which he did again by showing the composure to control Cerny's pass before making space for a shot was deflected into the net for the Rangers winner - 7 | SNS Group
20. Tawanda Maswanhise
Caused Rangers defence problems with his pace and was heavily involved in opener as he broke the offside trap to set up the attack. Replaced on 63 minutes and Motherwell missed the Zimbabwean thereafter - 7 | SNS Group
