Rangers’ Nico Raskin Caught on Camera Spraying Aberdeen Fan With Water Bottle

Calls for discipline followed as manager Danny Rohl downplayed the flashpoint.

Overview

  • Sky’s broadcast showed Raskin spray a supporter near the Pittodrie tunnel after a 2-0 Rangers win, prompting the fan to throw a paper cup back.
  • Rohl declined to focus on the confrontation in his post-match interview, saying he wanted to play football on the pitch.
  • Chris Sutton, Kris Boyd and Paul Hartley criticized Raskin’s conduct and urged authorities to impose a punishment.
  • Coverage noted a recent parallel when Vaclav Cerny squirted a bottle toward Celtic fans at Parkhead, with commentators recalling no punishment then.
  • Match reports also cited missiles thrown at Rangers players and staff during the game, and no official disciplinary action had been announced at the time of reporting.
