Rangers sit in a promising position at the halfway point of their last-16 Europa League tie against Fenerbahce.
Away in Turkiye last night, against the odds, Barry Ferguson's side continued their impressive European form with another big win on the road.
Vaclav Cerny scored twice after an early opener by Cyriel Dessers to give the Scottish Premiership giants a famous 3-1 win in Istanbul.
It could have been more for Rangers, too, but unfortunately for Dessers, he was found to be marginally offside on TWO occasions in the early stages of the second half.
Cerny eventually added a third for the visitors, though, which means Jose Mourinho's side have it all to do in the second leg in Glasgow next midweek.
Ferguson insisted after the game in his media duties that Rangers would not get too far ahead of themselves, stating that the tie was not over despite earning a valuable two-goal advantage ahead of the home leg at Ibrox.
While those inside the club are understandably of that mindset, we can take a look at what could lie in wait for them in the quarter-finals of the competition.
That would be either Roma or Athletic Club. The sides met in the Italian capital yesterday evening, with the hosts running out 2-1 winners over the La Liga outfit.
Inaki Williams opened the scoring on 50 minutes before Angelino replied for Roma not long after.

It looked like Athletic Club would hold on to take a draw back to the Basque country, although substitute Eldor Shomurodov popped up in the dying embers of stoppage time to win it for Roma on the night.
So, the balance of that tie is very much still on a knife edge heading into next week's return leg in Spain.
If Rangers managed to overcome that round, then either FCSB, Lyon, Real Sociedad or Manchester United would lie in wait in the semis.
Lyon look favourites to progress to the last-eight having defeated FCSB 3-1 last night, while Sociedad and Man United played out a 1-1 draw on Spanish soil.
