American Abroad Update: Rangers Win

Rangers beat Kilmarnock 2-0 on Tuesday in the Scottish Premier League. DaMarcus Beasley went the full-ninety and Maurice Edu was a 68th-minute substitute. Steven Whittaker put Rangers up in the 55th, with Kenny Miller scoring in the 61st.

"If I get an opportunity to get in there and have a chance to get a goal or set one up I'll go for it," Whittaker told the club's official site. "Goals win you games and if there's a chance for us to get one, I'll try to do that. Everyone in our team is the same. We look to impose ourselves on games and go for victories. It's good I've got a little bit of freedom to go and join in the attack when possible."

Rangers are now 13 points ahead of Celtic for first place in the SPL, level on games played at 28.

In the Championship, Jay DeMerit started and went the distance for Watford in their 1-0 loss to Swansea City. Shefki Kuqi scored the game's lone goal in the 18th-minute.

"It was quite frustrating the amount of chances we had," Watford manager Malky Mackay said. "The way we played in the first half I think was as good as we have played this season."
