What the Austrian press had to say about last night..

[King_gazza 1,065]

Quote

Kleine Zeitung, meanwhile, felt a point “would have been quite possible” but only “if it had not given the relapse in the second half”. It accepted that Rangers were “superior” in the second half without creating too many chances after a first half which “was marked by a lot of fighting on both sides”. “Rangers... celebrated an ultimately deserved success,” it added.

Quote

Rapid’s defensive solidity was praised by Die Presse “until the 84th minute”. The paper was full of praise for the home side.

It wrote: “At Ibrox Park, the home base of the British-Protestant heritage club, Rangers are growing beyond their reach. Skilfully, they played their home form, the pace that Steven Gerrard’s squad sometimes dictated was remarkable.” “Conclusion: A courageous idea of the Viennese, who were no longer able to cope with the pressure of the hosts in the end.”

Quote

There was no complaints regarding Rangers’ penaalty which James Tavernier converged to put his side ahead. Der Standard called it a “clear penalty”, while Österreich bemoaned Dejan Ljubicic “fatal wrong pass” before “Mario Sonnleitner arrived too late against Morelos”.

Quote

Finally, the atmosphere and the support at Ibrox impressed the Austrian press. “As a footballer you can already see it as a reward for the dark days of endurance training, playing in the Glasgow Rangers’ Ibrox Stadium,” it was written in Der Standard. “Rapid got this reward thanks to the Europa League.” It said that Rapid’s defeat happened “against a fantastic backdrop”.

Niederösterreichische Nachrichten called Ibrox a “cauldron”, while Österreich hailed the “fantastic atmosphere”.

Leckie just being a wank. A lot in the Scottish press loathe to give us any praise.

Aye mate, apparently he doesn’t press defenders enough, is short of pace, has a poor first touch and no positional sense.

Fuck’s sake, that sums that lot up! Kent was brilliant last night.

[Lloyd 10,756]

Most of the Bill Leckie article is focusing on the mistakes Morelos made during the game and how Gerrard should sit him down and show him all the bits in the match where he got it wrong..

There’s a few things you can criticise Morelos for, but he’s spotted none of them.

Leckie is mentally challenged, poor cunt.

I know it's just so blatant now, I mean a fucking 6, will be interesting as SG said any players get less than an 8 and he will be asking questions!

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

Breath of fresh air to read a non bigoted level headed take on last nights game.
