The Super Eagles got off the mark this season as Rangers returned to the top of the Scottish Premiership with a comprehensive win over St. Johnstone
After firing blanks in Rangers first two league games, Joe Aribo finally scored his first goal of the campaign in the Gers victory over St. Johnstone. Aribo joined Rangers last season, and had a brilliant debut campaign, scoring nine times and providing eight assists.
He has continued in the same vein this season. The Nigerian international had scored twice in Rangers pre-season friendlies, and on Wednesday night he opened his account for the new campaign.
Borna Barisic put Steven Gerrard’s men ahead in the 21st minute before Ryan Kent added a second on the stroke of half-time.

Aribo then scored Rangers third four minutes after the break, heading home at the near post following a perfect cross from James Tavernier.
Aribo’s goal was the last of the encounter as Rangers made it three wins out of three in the Scottish top-flight this season.
