Michael Beale got his Rangers managerial era up and running as his side defeat Bayer Leverkusen at Ibrox.
The home side looked much quicker in their build-up play as they got the new boss off to the perfect start with a 3-0 win over their Bundesliga opponents. Malik Tillman's double from two excellent James Tavernier crosses and Scott Arfield's late strike secured the bragging rights with all focus now turning towards the Premiership resumption with Hibs making the trip to Govan for a Thursday night game under the lights next week. There was even time for the skipper to hit the frame of the goal with a late spot-kick.
Beale challenged the players to show their desire and want to remain part of his Ibrox adventure and a number of stars did their chances no harm of staking a claim under the 42-year-old for the visit of Lee Johnson's men and going forward. As promised he used his squad with a raft of changes at the break for the home side. Here's how we rated the home side at a chilly Ibrox.
