😲 Rangers make nightmare start in UCL play-off against Club Brugge

Rangers' chances of securing 2025/26 Champions League qualification were dealt a huge early blow in their play-off clash against Club Brugge.

The Gers found themselves 1-0 down after just three minutes when a defensive mix-up between Nasser Djiga and John Souttar allowed Romeo Vermant to clip a first-time finish over Jack Butland.

Things went from bad to worse for Russell Martin's outfit after his defence left Jorne Spileers completely unmarked to volley in from a Christos Tzolis' corner in the seventh minute. 

Rangers then shipped a third on the 20-minute mark, allowing Brandon Mechele plenty of space to rifle in a half volley from outside the area.

Is there any way back for Rangers here?
