Rangers will play Aberdeen in the Premier Sports Cup semi-final on Saturday, October 31.

The game will take place at 5.30 pm, with Hearts playing Hibs at the national stadium on Sunday at 3 pm.

Derek McInnes' side earned a place in the final four of the competition with a convincing 3-0 win over Celtic in Sunday's Old Firm. Goals from Kevin Kelsy and a Dan Neil double sent McInnes' side into the final four.

Now, he has the chance to set up a cup final against the winner of the Edinburgh derby.

"Yeah, delighted, obviously, to get the club into the semi-final," McInnes said, discussing his team's performance at the weekend.

"I feel the performance we gave today was the performance that was required to overcome a team like Celtic. Delighted we gave a performance for so many today. I don’t think we had a failure, and that’s what it takes to win. That’s a good reference for us going forward."

Meanwhile, Rangers youngster Kyle Glasgow has been called up to the Scotland Under-21 squad.

The Rangers Review revealed last night that the talented youngster was to be rewarded for his early-season performances with a place in Tony Docherty's first squad.

The 16-year-old, who has started the season impressively for Alloa in League One, has previously been capped at youth level for Portugal and Scotland.

Benefiting from the Scottish FA's co-op loan agreement, he has been able to gain exposure to first-team football with Alloa while still turning out for the Rangers Under-19 side.

He's already managed three goals and as many assists for Andy Graham's side.

Glasgow was also part of Derek McInnes' squad for the Europa League play-off tie with Jagiellonia at Ibrox in August.

Now, Glasgow has received a call-up to the Scotland Under-21 squad for their upcoming matches with Bulgaria and Azerbaijan.

Glasgow, who signed his first professional deal at Ibrox earlier this year despite offers from England, is a left-footed attacker who can play across the forward line.
