Motherwell deserved to beat Rangers, but we'll take a point, says Well ace

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Tom Sparrow believes Motherwell deserved to take all three points from Rangers on Sunday but says they don’t have time to dwell on it.The Steelmen led 2-0 through first-half strikes from Apostolos Stamatelopoulos and Tawanda Maswanhise.Rangers sub Igamane pulled a goal back, and Motherwell substitute Tony Watt had two ‘goals’ disallowed, before Igamane again struck to take a point back to Ibrox.Sparrow says any result against the Glasgow giants is a good one, but might not have accepted a point at the interval.The midfielder said: “I thought we had won the game.

The lads got themselves into a great position at half-time, and it was disappointing to concede so early in the second half, but we did well to hold on in the end.“A point against Rangers is a decent result but we probably wouldn’t have taken that at half-time.“Anything against the Old Firm is a good result but when you’re 2-0 up it’s a little bit disappointing.“But we’ve had a tough fixture schedule, and a point is a good point in the end.“I thought we deserved to win the game, even with conceding two goals.

We’ve put another two in the net, and could have had a few more.”Motherwell have endured a punishing festive schedule with Celtic and Rangers inside four days, and continue that with a trip to Hearts on January 2, followed by a home clash against Aberdeen next Sunday.Sparrow said: “It’s two big games again.

We don’t really have enough time to look back, and when we did that after Celtic, I thought we started this game brilliantly.
