Aberdeen goalkeeper Muller keeps Rangers waiting, turning away close-range attempts as a place in the Premier Sports Cup final hangs in the balance. The breakthrough eventually comes from Ryan Naderi, with just eight minutes of normal time left.
Premier Sports' highlights of Rangers' victory over Aberdeen drew more than 62,000 views in their opening eight hours, already far beyond the few thousand a regular upload usually attracts on its first day.
The Hampden semi-final is not simply a procession towards Naderi's finish. Aberdeen threaten early through Walker and Connor Ronan, while Rangers build pressure through attacking runs and set pieces. There are missed opportunities at both ends before Naderi arrives to knock in the only goal, sending his teammates towards the celebrating supporters.
Naderi's positioning and running are among the details viewers discuss, alongside Makhanya's footwork and Bouanani's close control. One comment points readers towards Makhanya's contribution midway through the reel, a reminder that the scorer is not the only player catching attention.
For those wanting the Aberdeen perspective, Premier Sports has also posted separate post-match interviews with Ronan and head coach Stephen Robinson following their elimination.
