Boyd beats Larsson goal record as Rangers run riot

KRIS BOYD smashed Henrik Larsson’s record as the Scottish Premier League’s top goalscorer after netting an incredible five goals as Dundee United crashed to a 7-1 defeat at Ibrox.

Not content to simply level the Celtic legend’s tally of 158 – he ended the match having taken his own tally to 160 goals in Scottish football’s top-flight.

Damien Casalinuovo pulled a goal back for United and Steven Whittaker and Madjid Bougherra were also on the scoresheet but the night belonged to Boyd. The Scottish champions now boast a seven-point lead at the summit ahead of Sunday’s Old Firm derby, with the only sour point a red card for Kenny Miller which rules him out of the clash with the Hoops.
