Sasa papac says sorry for euro shame

[ian1964 10,416]

SASA PAPAC has apologised for Rangers� Euro nightmare against Malmo at Ibrox and promised Swede dreams in the return leg.

 

The Bosnian stopper reckons the Light Blues players owe their fans a massive debt after losing the home leg of the Champions League qualifier 1-0 last week.

 

Now after a morale boosting first win of the season in the SPL clash with St Johnstone, Papac is ready to go gunning for the Swedish champs in Wednesday�s do-or-die decider.

 

Papac knows that Rangers will need to overcome the weight of history if they are to progress. In 55 years of European football, Rangers have never lost the home leg of a tie and come back to win the away leg and progress.

 

ââ?¬Å?All I can say is sorry for the result against Malmo at Ibrox but we still have the chance to go through. Why not?ââ?¬Â said Papac ââ?¬Ë?We know we can play better and if we take our game to a high level then we definitely have a chance.

 

"I could see signs in the first leg that we can do it and we can only improve on that performance. We can take our level higher and definitely get a good result in Malmo on Wednesday.

 

"We must keep a clean sheet in Malmo if we want to go the next stage. I've never played in Sweden before, this will be a first but I'm ready for the challenge. Malmo didn't really surprised me in the first match because on the video I could see great things, especially in an attacking sense.

 

ââ?¬Å?They have a couple of great, talented players - especially up front.I'm not surprised but everything is in our hands because if we play better then it's no problem for us.ââ?¬Â

 

Rangers can at least go into the match at the Swedbank Stadion with a bit more confidence after a routine 2-0 win at Perth on Saturday.

 

Goals from Stevie Naismith and Nikica Jelavic gave the Light Blues their first competitive win under Ally McCoist and lifted some of the tension around the club after a difficult first week of the new campaign.
