August 29, 2025

Rangers bowed out of the Champions League playoffs on Wednesday with a humiliating 6-0 defeat at the hands of Club Brugge which piles further pressure on manager Russell Martin, while Benfica secured a place in the competition proper at the expense of Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce.

Rangers humiliated, Benfica deny Fenerbahce Champions League spot

The Glasgow giants travelled to Belgium right up against it after losing 3-1 at home in last week's first leg, when they conceded three times in the opening 20 minutes.

They never looked like turning the tie around as Club Brugge took the lead inside five minutes at the Jan Breydelstadion through Nicolo Tresoldi and found themselves five goals ahead on the night by halftime.

Rangers were reduced to IO men in the eighth minute when Max Aarons was shown a straight red card for hauling down Christos Tzolis and denying the striker a clear run on goal.
