Rangers boss Walter Smith had mixed emotions after seeing his side score a late equaliser in a 3-3 draw at home to Dundee United.

Kevin Thomson's strike rescued a point for the Gers, who missed a chance to go level on points with Celtic at the top of the SPL table.

Smith said: "From our own point of view we are a little bit disappointed with the defending, we gave away the goals a little too easily and had to work very hard to get ours.

"But there were a lot of pleasing things in our game especially in the second half. We created a lot of opportunities and maybe just deserved to edge the game with that second-half pressure.

"But give credit to United, I felt they played very well and they punished us for any errors we did make.

"In the end, we are pleased we managed to show a bit of determination and character to come back and get a goal in injury-time to get the point."
