Rangers boss Michael Beale earned his first win as manager by fighting back twice to beat Hibs 3-2 at Ibrox.

Here is everything he had to say to Sky Sports following the game.

Was that the cliche of a game of two halves?

The first ball that went in our box, went into the goal and I thought we looked a bit nervous and anxious. We actually got a really good equaliser from Fashion Sakala with a fantastic finish then we kick ourselves in the foot again and concede. Then I'm a little bit concerned to see how the group would react. We had a nice chat at half-time and organised a few things. They listened, they went out and they played much more like I want them to play in the second half, dominating the game. We equalised then scored a fantastic goal. That's how I want to see us play, counter-pressing then combination play. Great pass from Tavernier, lovely feet from Tillman and obviously Morelos is delighted with that.

What did you say at half-time?

Just stop for a minute. I know the anxiety with everything that's gone on in the last few weeks. Let's stop and get the style right. Lets play closer together. Let's not overthink. Let's play fast football and counter-press hard and if we get the next goal the stadium will pick up and we will go on and win the second half 2-0. They did it. We weren't winning first balls in the first half. It's difficult, we know we have centre-halves missing and the two boys are doing their best for the team. We have to improve in the duels and play closer together and we did that.

When you look at that second half, is that more food for thought?

I know I have a job on and to be fair to the boys they know they have a job on to get back to the standards we have had previously. You saw a little bit of everything tonight, there was a little bit of anxiety in the air, certainly in the crowd and on the pitch. It didn't look anything like the way we wanted it to. That just shows you a game at the weekend like Leverkusen where there are not three points on it, everyone relaxes and plays. Tonight I saw a different type of performance but in the second half they got the job done. I think if you look at the statistics of the game we were worthy winners and outside the two goals Allan’s not had much to do. It was disappointing to concede twice, we need to clean up on that and we will do. When we have all of our defenders available which won’t be too far away I think then you’ll see a stronger defensive performance.

Can you give us an update on when Goldson, King and Davies who was on the bench today, will be back?

Connor’s trained for two days in seven weeks, Ben’s trained for three days. I’ve got to be careful here, we have a lot of big matches coming up. I felt after the performance at the weekend I could get through it. Unfortunately, Leon King was sick this morning so that changed our plans and John had to drop back there and we lost Colak yesterday afternoon to a tight calf and we didn’t want to take a risk. The last 24 hours have been far from ideal. I stood in front of you before the game quite calm but in my head there was a lot going on so I’m delighted to take the three points. I knew it wasn’t going to be perfect and we just have to keep improving every week. We can’t be looking too far ahead in terms of the table or anything else. We just have to get back to what we want it to look like on a daily basis.
