Europa League

Is it destiny for Gio van Bronckhorst and Co and they eye glory against the Germans in Seville.

Frankfurt have quality, no more so than frontman Rafaele Borre, and will pose serious questions but Rangers have goals coming from all over the park and with confidence soaring can finish the job in Seville. Nothing has fazed Rangers in their stunning surge to the final and unlike 2008 it’s been goals and thrills galore. But this Rangers side has beaten better teams on this run and have enough to make history. The heat is going to be a factor and I don’t expect a classic. Rangers have a smart manager and a talented team. It’s almost as if Eintracht Frankfurt are only in Seville to make up the numbers.

Rangers fans have descended on Seville ahead of the Europa League final against Eintracht Frankfurt at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.

Included within that quartet is that epic night against RB Leipzig in the second leg of the semi-finals” Oliver Glasner has been in charge of Frankfurt for a year. They have just finished 11th in the 18-team Bundesliga and did not win any of their closing eight league matches, a run stretching back to mid-March. They drew their final game 2-2 away to Mainz on Sunday. They have been a different animal in Europe, however, with Real Betis, Barcelona and West Ham their three most recent conquests in reaching the final. A Ferran Torres goal cancelled out Ansgar Knuaff’s opener for Frankfurt and the German side had to see out a 1-1 home-leg draw with 10 men. Japanese midfielder Daichi Kamada is also a threat, having netted nine times, including in the away victory over West Ham. Serbian midfielder Filip Kostic, who joined from Hamburg four years ago, is also deemed a key man for Frankfurt. A 90th-minute goal in Germany took the tie into extra time but Frankfurt were saved from penalties by a last-minute own goal.

The stage in Seville is set for Eintracht and Rangers to make May 18th their happiest date in a long time. It will definitely be a high voltage match, played with as much passion on the pitch as in the stands, with probably a few jabs to try each other in the first minutes, and where the team that control the game and their emotions the better will win. James Tavernier will try to go up as much as he can, but it is expected for him to be a bit more conservative and have a role similar to the one against Angeliño; Trying to push as much without losing sight of the lethal Kostic. Die Adler must be very aware of Kamara’s positioning, as him wandering around freely between the half-spaces and the spaces in between the midfield and defensive lines is a great danger, as he could create confusion on who’s stepping up to mark him. The English forward allows Rangers to go long, either for him to produce a second ball or to attack the spaces behind the line, or to create combinations and overloads in a more set attack. Rangers’ starting lineup is also clear for the most part, Giovanni Van Bronckhorst commented that the team is aiming for a match more similar to the one played in Ibrox and not to the first leg in Germany. The Arsenal and Barcelona legend expressed his joy of being in the final and the pride it means for him to coach his players on such a stage. Filip Kostic and James Tavernier will display one of the night’s battles, but down the other flank will come one of the defensive trouble for the SGE. The loss of Hinteregger is a hard knock for Die Adler, not only as they lost their leader in the defense and their most reliable player, but also because the coordination in the defensive movements and transitions will be altered. The pair in the midfield will be Rode and Sow, while Ansgar Knauff and Filip Kostic will go down the flanks. Offensively, the pair will push the transition as fast as possible, but they must be prepared for one of either Lundstrom, Goldson, or Bassey to step up to them as soon as they receive the ball, if not earlier. Both clubs arrive at the UEFA Europa League final with the highest expectations and the highest confidence in the style of football that brought them to the final.

But I played in a World Cup final, played extra time in the World Cup final and lost it. Rangers regained their form in time for the second leg and Tavernier hit a double and the visitors had a man sent off before the interval. The Light Blues sent out another statement with a 3-0 Ibrox win over the Serbian champions thanks to another Tavernier penalty plus goals from Morelos and Balogun. Red Star had three goals disallowed for offside, hit the bar and were thwarted by an Allan McGregor penalty save so the tie was far from over and the Gers goalkeeper needed to be at his best in Serbia. But Ryan Kent netted on the counter to make it 1-1 and a late penalty for the hosts proved irrelevant. Gers fans enjoyed one of their greatest European trips as the tournament favourites were stunned in Germany. The visitors were three up inside 49 minutes thanks to James Tavernier’s penalty, a Morelos tap-in and Lundstram’s curler, and an own goal helped Rangers to a 4-2 win. There were early signs that Giovanni Van Bronckhorst had the Midas touch in Europe when he led his new team into the knockout stages with a 2-0 win over Sparta in his first match in charge.

Once in the shoot-out, Aaron Ramsey lost out to the ex-PSG man with the fifth and final Rangers penalty. The 31-year-old had little to do in the opening hour of the final and was powerless to stop Joe Aribo taking the lead after a shocking defensive mistake in front of him.

The legs were heavy, the efforts tired but not spared, even if the fear of defeat weighed as heavy as the determination to win and the errors were accumulating, shots often taken too early. Then Kamada, alone in the area, lifted his shot over McGregor and on to the roof of the net, fists beating at the turf in frustration. But Eintracht did level when Kostic’s cross passed by four men in blue, Goldson the last one to see it go, just as Borré nipped in front of him at the near post to turn it into the net. He struck a clever shot onto the roof of the net from 20 yards and then went flying up the pitch from one area to the other only to pull wide on half an hour. Eintracht especially, at least to start with, Daichi Kamada taking a touch too many when the first opportunity dropped, eventually stopped by McGregor, and Djibril Sow unable to put away the follow up. Then a glorious 118th-minute chance for Ryan Kent would have won it only for Kevin Trapp to make an extraordinary save from close range, the follow-up from Steven Davis somehow deflecting over the bar.

It's hard to reflect straight away. Midfielder Steven Davis added: "It's huge disappointment. I'm absolutely devastated.

And having suffered the agony of a semifinal penalty shootout defeat to eventual winners Chelsea in 2019, the manner of victory could not have been sweeter for the traveling Frankfurt fans who -- donning the colors of their club's match shirt -- formed a raucous white wall behind the goal.
