Cup fortune cheers hero Kenny

Miller netted a late winner at Hampden Park after seeing two team-mates sent off in the second half.St Mirren had been the better side and looked favourites when first midfielder Kevin Thomson then teenage defender Danny Wilson were red-carded.But Steven Naismith came off the bench to set up Miller for the winner in the 84th minute.Scotland striker Miller told BBC Scotland: "We've had six games against them (St Mirren) now and every one of them has been tough."We were just lucky to get the goal at the end there."Asked if he thought the League Cup could be the first of a treble-winning season, Miller said: "Let's hope so!"He added: "It was probably one of the first times I heard them sing my name since I came back."It gave me goosebumps to be honest and it confirmed that I have maybe been accepted."So I am over the moon."It is great for me to get the goal but it is more important that we won the game."It was tough when we went down to nine men and you might feel that it is not going to be your day but there is a determination here."We didn't want to get beat."We were all trying to run forward to get a goal and then run back to defend."Fortunately enough we managed to get the break at the end."Rangers captain David Weir said: "We were very fortunate to win today."In the first half, we were as poor as we've been all season."I thought we got better when we went down to nine men."St Mirren boss Gus McPherson said: "It's extremely difficult to take and football can be a cruel game."We gave Rangers a really difficult time but ultimately we've lost the game."
