Uefa make decision on Rangers defying Champions League rules with Queen tribute

Rangers will not face any disciplinary action for paying tribute to the Queen by singing the national anthem before last night's Champions League defeat to Napoli, despite having being told not to by Uefa.

The Glasgow club paid tribute to the 96-year-old with a moment of silence, a display created by the Union Bears supporters group and a rendition of the national anthem before succumbing 3-0 to the Serie A club at Ibrox.
