Glasgow Rangers played out a 1-1 draw in their final Europa League group game as Ibrox boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst remains unbeaten.

The Gers were already through to the next round of the competition, with just pride and prize money at stake on Thursday.

And Van Bronckhorst will be delighted with the Rangers display as they played out a 1-1 draw in Lyon.

Rangers winger Scott Wright opened the scoring in the 41st minute.

The 24-year-old fired home via a deflection following good work from Ryan Kent and Glen Kamara.

Kent very much got his revenge after a controversial moment in the 29th minute.

The Rangers star leapt to meet a crossfield pass and Damien Da Silva clattered with him in mid-air.

Somehow, the foul went against Kent, and he wasn’t happy about it.

Neither was BBC Sportsound pundit and former Rangers defender Richard Foster.

“Kent is unlucky there,” he said (9/12/2021, 18:18). “That should be outlawed in football.

“Once you are in the air you have no control. I think that’s a really dangerous tackle.”

Lyon equalised on 48 minutes when Rayan Cherki got the better of Borna Barisic and drilled the ball into the centre.

The cross clipped Calvin Bassey’s toe and went into the net.

Both Rangers and Lyon stepped up their attacking efforts late on but it finished all square in the end.

Rangers are next in action on Sunday when they travel to Hearts.
