The pressure was piled on Clement and his players as they headed to the national stadium.
Wednesday’s dismal defeat to Aberdeen left the Gers languishing in third place in the Premiership, nine points adrift of both the Dons and rivals Celtic.
Nothing other than a win over the Steelmen would do.
The heat was very much on Clement as he arrived at Hampden yesterday afternoon, but he still managed to help bail out Premier Sports host Connie McLaughlin!

She was on presenting duties over the weekend and was standing trackside waiting to go live when Clement arrived at the national stadium.
And the eagle-eyed Rangers boss was on hand to prevent McLaughlin from having a moment to forget live on air!
The presenter, who also covers games for the BBC, has shared previously unseen footage to her Instagram stories.
It shows Clement arriving and as he passes McLaughlin, he notices something.
He can be seen pointing to his mouth and uttering a few words, with the presenter thanking him.
McLaughlin can then be seen wiping her teeth with her fingers – and she’s revealed exactly what went on!
She revealed Clement told her: “You’ve got a wee bit of lipstick on your teeth!”
McLaughlin added: “Helping me out before we went live!”
Clement himself had a moment to forget at Hampden when Andy Halliday fired Motherwell into a first-half lead.
It was a 1-0 lead that Well held at half-time, with Rangers walking off to resounding boos at the break.
But his team rallied in the second-half, with goals from Cyriel Dessers and Nedim Bajrami digging the Gers out of an almighty hole and sending them to the Premier Sports Cup Final with a 2-1 win.
It sets up a mouth watering Old Firm showdown for the first silverware of the season.
It’ll all be decided back at Hampden on 15 December.
