Popular Post Johnny Dangerously 7,246 Posted October 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2017 Found this pic of a Rangers v Moscow Dynamo match at Ibrox. Think we drew 2-2. No idea what their keeper has dropped. If anyone can name any of the Gers players then you’re a better man than me. delparlane, dougie76, Callum_Doon and 3 others like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post McEwan's Lager 16,120 Posted October 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2017 I've found the line up: Dawson, D Gray, Shaw, Watkins, Young, Symon, Waddell, Gillick, Smith, Williamson, Johnston The other two must be Smith and then Johnston as i'm not familiar with him or what he looks like? Here's a great pic of Willie Waddell from the same game: dougie76, tannerall, richshearcald and 4 others like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was a boy at that game, lost 3-1 if I remember right. They were a great side back then. Also lost 3-2 away too, think we had hope in that game that we might get a result, can’t quite mind how the scoring went. Wasn’t to be though. onefootwillie and harlands plater like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think its amazing that in the early 70s you got to see guys like Beckenbauer and Cruyff strutting about Ibrox.

Popular Post tannerall 25,919 Posted October 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2017 Moscow Dynamo recruited players from other Russin teams to enhance their line-up on the tour and were effectively the Russian national team. After a warm up game against Chelsea which ended 3-3, they hammered Cardiff 10-1, then defeated an Arsenal team that included and Stan Mathews as guests 4-3 at White Heart Lane (sic). So to Ibrox and the famous 2-2 draw in front of 90,000 fans, and as Rangers aggression pinned them back in the second half they famously put on a player as substitute, but omitted to take one off, a tactic they had apparently tried against Arsenal too, damn Ruskies I love stuff like this, especially as at that time Arsenal and Rangers were the two greatest teams in Britain and probably Europe. The Russians brought along a new kind of football, similar to the later Dutch "Total Football", with all players passing and covering for each other. The Russians also had the great goalkeeper "Tiger Khomich" who was deemed to be the greatest goalie in the world at the time.on a level with the later great Lev Yashin. Only mention of famous hoops back then was the blue/white hoops we played in, and the yellow hoops on the Russians baggy blue shorts.
