Gerrard further praised the Dons goalkeeper Joe Lewis for making numerous outstanding saves.
The Ibrox manager added, (h/t Rangers News)
So yes, I am pleased, but it is important we keep pushing until the end. It is important every player – even squad players – realise the next three games are just as important as the ones which have gone before.
Lee Wallace, the veteran full-back came as a substitute and got a huge reception from the fans. The 31-year-old made his 3rd appearance of the season.
Gerrard also had a couple of academy talents in the bench namely Josh McPake and Dapo Mebude.
He said, (h/t Rangers News)
“They are on their mind and so are a few others in the Academy. I believe in the Academy and if there is an opportunity, the boys have to be on their toes as I won’t be reluctant to put someone out there.”
The Light Blues will face Hibernian in their next game this Sunday and Gerrard is desperate to finish this season on a high note.
