​Caixinha sacked as Rangers boss

Rangers have sacked manager Pedro Caixinha after seven months in charge.

The decision was made at a board meeting called after Rangers conceded a late equaliser against Kilmarnock on Wednesday night. They lost the Scottish League Cup semi-final to Motherwell.

Assistant manager Helder Baptista and coaches Pedro Malta and Jose Belman have also left the Ibrox club.

Rangers are fourth in the table, eight points behind leaders Celtic.
