Rangers hit four against Berwick as Little scores hat-trick

Rangers have moved 19 points clear at the top of the Scottish Third Division after Andrew Little scored a hat-trick in a 4-2 win over Berwick.

Rangers took the lead after eight minutes when Spaniard Fran Sandaza powered through the Berwick defence and fed Little, who found the net from a wide angle.

Despite numerous chances for the home side, there were no more goals in a one-sided first half.

However, Rangers were soon three goals ahead thanks to fine volleys from Little and then influential midfielder David Templeton.

Goals from Ross Gray and Fraser McClaren would have given the Borderers hope of a famous comeback, but Little scored his third to complete a 4-2 victory for Ally McCoist's side.
