Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou couldn't believe how "cynical" Rangers were in the 1-1 draw at Fir Park.
Rangers took an early lead courtesy of Nicolas Raskin's goal and looked as though they would hold on to the three points when Motherwell were reduced to 10 men for Lukas Fadinger's challenge on Mikey Moore with just over 10 minutes to play.
But a late goal from Celtic loanee Stephen Welsh rescued a point for Askou's men, which was no more than the manager felt his side deserved, especially given the tactics employed by Danny Rohl's side.
"It was an absolutely sensational performance from start to finish," Askou told Sky Sports.
"We dominated the game in so many ways, even with one man down we dominated and looked like a team who wanted to win the game.
"I thought our intensity and speed of play was outstanding and it caused a tonne of problems for Rangers out there. They had to [concede] one free-kick after another to stop us.
"I was surprised that they didn't get more yellow cards in the first half and I don't think it's good enough.
"It's an absolutely top game, probably the best game you can get in Scottish football right now, and you get to play that cynical?
"I think it's a shame for the game, that's the reason why there weren't more goals in the game.
"We didn't let frustration take over, we stuck in it and adjusted a few things at half-time and knew there would be chances in the second half."
While Askou acknowledged Fadinger deserved to be sent off, he didn't see a huge difference between that challenge and some on his own players.
"Lukas gets sent off and it's our first red card." Askou added.
"The intensity of the tackle was not worse than many of the other tackles we received.
"He's just a little bit unlucky that he catches him five inches off the ground."
