Rangers are outclassed in defeat as Liverpool ease to Champions League win at Anfield

SOMETIMES you just have to hold your hands up. This was one of those nights for Rangers.

It wasn’t as gutless as the loss to Ajax. It wasn’t as embarrassing as the Old Firm defeat to Celtic or a case of what might have been like being overcome by Napoli.

The Champions League continues to be a steep learning curve for Rangers, though, and Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side were taught a harsh lesson at Anfield. There is no shame in admitting that Rangers are just not at this level and the manner of this defeat – being so second best physically, tactically and mentally - was another reminder about just where the club and the team are in a European sense.
