A Rangers support numbering more than 1,000 watched their side fall behind in first-half injury-time as Carlos Martinez curled home from 20 yards for the team from the third tier of United States soccer.

With the game being played in the shadow of the California State Fair, Darren McGregor headed an equaliser from Lewis Macleod’s corner early in the second half and Black flicked home Kenny Miller’s cutback to win it for Rangers.
