match thread (image) [FT] Rangers 3 (Tavernier 45pen; Colak 58; Tillman 78) - 0 Union SG

This humble pie is absolutely delicious, I just didn’t see that as being possible with how we’ve started the season but we made the bang average Belgians look, well, bang average.

 

We took some of our chances and got away with our sloppy defensive errors and giving the ball away in dangerous areas this time, but will need to be a lot sharper to get through the next round, especially with the first leg at home.

 

But anyway, just going to enjoy soaking this one up, the unexpected victories taste all the sweeter!

Good result although Union should never have been in it at all.

 

Tillman's leap for his goal was amazing. The keeper will be having nightmares.

Result was never in doubt.

Good game!

 

Exceeded my expectations again.

Tonight, whilst ignoring the match, I drank vodka Martini for the first time ever (in a fine dining rooftop restaurant).  I might do it more regularly after finding out the result.  Not where it costs 12 Euros though!

While checking the scores of tonight`s games, I noted that there will be the Super Cup between Real and Eintracht tomorrow. The latter`s preparation was a slender 6-1 home defeat against Bayern last Friday, when the BL kicked off. (Will still need some tome till I get over that game ... what a chance missed.)

I saw that and it made me very sad.

That keeper is 6foot 9 or something with huge long arms and wasn't close to out jumping him.

I'm not sure about that!

 

Even if only about 6 foot you would expect him to at least prevent a clean header.

A good picture of it here.

Tilman gets across him fairly well and gets up brilliantly but it is awful from the keeper.
