Paulsen ‘kept score down’ in Ibrox loss – Johanssonpublished at 17:38 BST 5 September<\/p>\n

17:38 BST 5 September<\/p>\n

FT: Rangers 1-0 Motherwell<\/p>\n

Motherwell manager Alfred Johansson tells BBC Sportsound: “They were better than us today, they deserved the three points.<\/p>\n

“The main reason for the result today is two things – we have a very, very, very, very good keeper that keeps the scored down today, that’s one; the second is that we don’t play up to our best.<\/p>\n

“If you want to come to Ibrox and get a result, you need to perform at your best and we need to learn from that.<\/p>\n

“You never want to concede a goal, it doesn’t matter how it happens. The fact that it’s only 1-0, is thanks to Alex Paulsen. It doesn’t matter if you’re a keeper, centre-back, full-back six, 10 winger or nine, you’re going to make mistakes because it’s not easy to play in that way always.<\/p>\n

“We have 150, 180 passes more than Rangers today. The chance of making a mistake in that passing situation is higher for us. Obviously, that can happen.”<\/p>\n
