Overview
- James Tavernier converted a VAR-awarded penalty before half-time to draw level with Ally McCoist on 21 European goals.
- Rodrigo Zalazar was sent off on the hour after a VAR review for a head movement toward Nicolas Raskin, yet Gabri Martinez equalised eight minutes later following Nasser Djiga’s misjudged header.
- Mohamed Diomande received a second yellow card in stoppage time, forcing Rangers to see out the game with 10 men.
- The result yielded Rangers’ first point of the league phase, leaving them near the bottom and needing an unlikely run of wins in their final three fixtures to keep hopes alive.
- The match followed owner Andrew Cavenagh’s dismissal of sporting director Kevin Thelwell and chief executive Patrick Stewart, intensifying scrutiny of recruitment as Rohl said he saw clear progress.
