Hellander was absolutely incredible tonight. 

Aye, but he is pure push maaan

Disappointed not to get the win but lets be honest, Porto had a number of chances there that could have easily secured the 3 points for them...

The draw is probably a fair result overall.

Brandon Barker was very good today. Good positional sense, good decision making. Impressive

The Ibrox madness will scare the living shit out of Porto.

No it won't, they players will have played in mental atmospheres in portugal, what the ibrox crowd will hopefully do is lift our guys an extra. 10%, that could be the difference 

[Andy 69]

Thought with the game Barasic was having that free kick was a cert.  Composure shown at the start of the second half was great to watch.

Great Result.  They will be gutted not to have taken 3 points there.

Do I watch Lazio....or RuPaul......hmmmmm

[Hilly86 701]

Bottle the confidence they played with in that second half, they looked like they were enjoying it.

Barisic, Helander and McGregor outstanding.

[GlasgowRangers1983 461]

I think fair result in the end 🇬🇧 They should of scored with the double chance near the end. Hats of to McGregor that double save puts us in contention to qualify in my books. Win our two home and we are through 👍

Fantastic result, even better performance, We looked like the home team at times.

I was thinking just that. For the middle hour of the game we looked like the home team. Helander and Barisic were top class. Barker showed a dimension to his game I never expected.

Great night

Good result really. Could’ve possibly sneaked all 3 but more than took the game to Porto and played most of the game being proactive.

some of the 1 touch passing and the build up to the goal was just totally different class.  Helander was colossal and it must be papac with a Borna barasic face mask on.   I know jack gave the ball away but bar that he had a great game.  
 

really good performance tonight.

Some shift - did very well

Rangers are more than holding their own against teams of the calibre Porto, Feyenoord and Young Boys. What Gerrard has achieved with our team is brilliant.

Would have been amazing if we won, which we could have, but I'll take the point. 

Some of intricate passing was phenomenal at times.

Barisic, Morelos, Davis and Helander were fantastic. Also pleasantly surprised by Barker's general play.

Snap!

[BLUEDIGNITY 33,638]

Never expected much tonight but now I'm saying to myself we should've won that.

[Fatman10 148]

Some of our passing tonight was amazing especially in wee triangles to get out of trouble, shame one pass kinda contributed to the goal, even tho the guy should have been closed down and hit so much faster, as I've said before happy with the point disappointed not to win.

[Siam69 26,824]

Manager has to get credit for the way he set the team up.

Barker and Kent both did what was asked of them.

Well done Stevie!

What a performance and result that is. Helander, Barisic, Kent and Morelos absolutely outstanding. Special mention to Barker as well. Well done Rangers. 

Helanders best game by a million miles. He looked a top notch centre half.

Great point. Porto are terrible and should win comfortably against them at Ibrox 

What game did you watch tonight because Porto are certainly not terrible? Yes we out-played them at times but they also out-played us at other times. They were technically very good on the ball and have some very decent players. The return game at Ibrox will certainly be no walk over.

Both feature trannies, so eachy peachie

[Laudrup1984 25,100]

Can't wait for Kent and Barker to get up to full speed along with the return of Jones. That pace up top gives us an extra dimension that we've really missed at times.

Barker can be pleased with that.
