Rangers ace posts social media message amid absence vs St Mirren

Rangers winger Oscar Cortes shared a message on social media after being left out of the Scottish Premiership match against St Mirren.

The Ibrox ace was not listed amongst the starting XI or subs for Russell Martin's side in Paisley.

Cortes had come off the bench in the Champions League second leg against Viktoria Plzen earlier this month, but has not been involved since.

Shortly before team news was confirmed for Rangers' match away to St Mirren, Cortes posted on his personal Instagram story.

The winger simply shared a bible verse of Psalm 126:5, in Spanish, accompanied by text.
