This was the game Blues (Rangers) Whites (Rangers Reserves) Andy Goram Antti Niemi Sergio Porrini Alec Cleland Tony Vidmar Joachim Bjorklund Stephen Wright Lorenzo Amoruso Jonas Thern Stale Stensaas Ian Durrant Rino Gattuso Jorg Albertz Ian Ferguson Brian Laudrup Paul Gascoigne Jontan Johansson Eric Bo Andersen Gordon Durie Peter Van Vossen Marco Negri Ally McCoist Subs: Steven Boyack, Steven Carson Subs: Unknown With ironic shouts of, ‘C’mon Rangers!’ from the Ibrox faithful, the game started with the Blues taking the early advantage through a Marco Negri tap in, assisted by Gordon Durie. But the lead was prematurely cut short as Lorenzo Amoruso headed in from a Stale Stensaas corner. This would be a common theme for the Whites in this 60 minute game, as Peter Van Vossen slipped through Eric Bo Andersen to slot home for the Whites 2nd goal of the game. Paul Gascoigne would then make it 3-1 for the Whites, by rounding Andy Goram and slotting home into the empty net. In doing so, Gazza celebrated with a little tongue and cheek, by re-enacting his famous ‘dentist chair’ celebration from the summer previous at Wembley in EURO 96′, where he scored a sensational goal for England against Scotland, when of course Andy Goram was the Scottish goalkeeper. Celebrations were brief and momentary, as Goram chased Gazza trying to boot him in the arse for his mickey taking! Fantastic scenes and a must watch!!(Highlights of training game further on in blog). Despite a little pressure from the Blues, the Whites would go on to score another three, all coming from the unfading and deadly Ally McCoist (Goram must have blown a gasket by now!). To add insult to injury for the Blues, Marco Negri had a chance to cut the deficit, but had a late penalty saved by Antti Niemi. Final score, Rangers(Blues) 1 Rangers Reserves (Whites) 6. here's a youtube link for it The Ibrox Derry, Johnny Dangerously, Inigo and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pair previous plied their trade at Italian side Perugia, and Smith snapped the duo up on free transfers after a successful trail that summer. Upon their arrival, Riccio mainly featured in the youth and reserve teams, while his fellow countryman Gattuso, was a regular starter in the first team (Early in the next season, new Rangers manager Dick Avocaat would sell Gattuso to Italian Serie A side Salernitana for £4m, as he was struggling to make an impact in the first team, and was being played out of position at right back by the Dutchman). Riccio struggled to make any inroads to the first team, until in his second season at Ibrox, when on Sunday the 2nd May 1999, Riccio was named on the bench for the Old Firm title clinching match at Parkhead. What a baptism of fire it could’ve been, to make your debut in such a special Old Firm! Unfortunately he never entered the field of play that day, but participated in the celebrations after the full time whistle. and I'm outta likes so couldn't like your answer Johnny Dangerously 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
