It was a night of severe punishment and a night to forget for Motherwell, with Aberdeen visiting North Lanarkshire and leaving with not only three points, but four goals to their name.  A quick turnaround to another game is the ideal scenario, and that's what lies ahead now ahead of the first international break of the season.

It was Motherwell's 11th game in 37 days, as the curtain was brought down on a hectic schedule since the start of the season for Alfred Johansson's side, and they were back on the road, facing Rangers at Ibrox.  The Steelmen were looking for their fourth win at Ibrox in four seasons, but when Rangers took an early lead, Derek McInnes' side didn't look back.

It's time to rest and recover before facing Aberdeen next Tuesday night at Fir Park.
