Tannochsidebear 2,306 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 We lost 2-0, 2 late goals, the first of which was an og. Just picking up from official club twitter feed so I haven’t seen any of it. On the face of it with Polster, Barker & Hastie all starting it seems a very disappointing result. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

917 191 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I was at tonight’s game, ironically having to drive 20 miles completely bypassing Glasgow. The rules state the game has to be played at a league ground, so that ruled out Auchenhowie. It was dire for 60 minutes, Rangers dominating possession & Barjonas pulling all the strings in midfield, but few chances were created by either side. Rangers 2 first team players were Hastie & Polster, neither of whom impressed though Hastie almost had his leg broke by a challenge in the 1st half & US international Polster was playing in midfield. I don’t think Thistle fielded their strongest team, but the game really opened up after an hour when Thistle brought on what appeared to be 4 first team players. They then created chances, but we responded & with 5 mins to go we forced the Thistle keeper into a superb double save. As happens, they then went up the park & scored 2 goals, the first an unlucky OG after a goalmouth scramble, the second a good finish after our young defenders had chucked it. To sum up, we certainly didn’t deserve to lose against the tournament favourites, but the boys hopefully learned that you can’t just keep trying to walk the ball into the net against men. Barjonas was my MOTM, but possibly needs to attempt less of the Zinedine Zidane passes at times. Rangers not out of this Cup yet though. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

917 191 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I never even clocked that Barker was a new signing. Hastie must have been in as an under 21 player. The big number 11 Barker had a bit more joy on the left wing than Hastie on the right, but in truth neither created much for Mebude at all, which must worry Steven Gerrard, who I got told was at the game. Young Atakayi actually created a lot more when he came on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
