[FT] Benfica 2 - 2 Rangers (Lawrence 7; Sterling 45+5)


Recommended Posts

Going away to Benfica twice and being gutted you didn't win on both occasions shouldn't happen for Scottish teams, but that's Rangers in Europe the last 6 years.

 

Don't let other fans downplay our record in the UEL either btw, look at the scores tonight - Leverkusen scraped a draw and Brighton and West Ham got pumped.

 

We've never been as consistent in Europe as we are now imo.

And should Di Maria have been sent off? He got a yellow card first half and had a lunge at Souttar at the end.

Yes and would have put him out of Ibrox. The ref shat it. Proud of the team tonight and we were a bit unlucky not to win. Bring on the spoonburners

If it wasn't for Jack Butland we would already be out of this tie.

We undoubtedly rode our luck, but the penalty was harsh and the own goal was a joke. We are very much in this

Gutted tbh. We should have won that game. They were shell shocked when we got the second goal. Wee Ridvan, Sterling, Silva and Diomande were excellent, and Big Jack made a couple of great saves. But Goldson and Souttar made an arse of it.

We showed great fight and character.  Pity about the 2 poor goals.  We were in a bad position tonight with so many injuries and I will take the draw.  Some of our players looked dead on their feet tonight.  Hopefully the crowd will get that little bit extra out of them next week.

Didn't realise until I heard PC mention it during his post-match interview, but Benfica haven't lost a home EL tie. Makes tonight's result and performance even more impressive.
