Two big Rangers excuses don't quite explain it as Gio's troops branded Champions League mugs - big match verdict

It was meant to be the Holy Grail but it ended in one massive fail.

One last shot at Champions League redemption but Rangers were left with very little Kudus and the worst record of any team in the group stages.

They ended Group A embarrassingly bottom of the group, without a single point and just two goals to their name.

The powers of Liverpool, Napoli and Ajax were a bridge too far for Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side. It was the Dutch side who cleaned up last night and ensured it was six defeats from six. Rangers were also left with a goal difference of minus 20, surpassing the previous record by Dinamo Zagreb back in 2011-12. The money may have boosted the Ibrox coffers, but it has done little for Rangers, as a team.
