Glasgow Rangers backed up last week’s stunning comeback by producing a poised performance to dump Sporting Braga out of the Europa League and reach the last 16. Ryan Kent’s calm, breakaway finish coupled with a strong defensive display means the Ibrox side are in the last 16 in European competition for the first time since 2011.

It might have been more comfortable had Ianis Hagi not had a first-half penalty saved and Scott Arfield’s late attempt from close range not been correctly ruled out for offside. But few would have given Steven Gerrard’s side a hope of progressing against the Europa League’s top scorers, having been 2-0 down after an hour of the home leg. Kent’s strike, though, ensured a 4-2 aggregate victory and means Rangers can look forward with excitement to Friday’s draw at 13:00 WAT in Nyon.
