Joe Aribo’s Rangers lost to Eintrancht Frankfurt in the Europa League final on penalties.
Former Arsenal midfielder, Aaron Ramsey was the only player to miss a penalty in the shootout of a match played in front of a mammoth crowd in Seville, Spain.
The Super Eagles attacking midfielder, Joe Aribo scored a neatly taken goal in the 57th minute. But it wasn’t enough for Rangers to win in a rare attempt to win a European trophy.
Borre pulled one back for Frankfurt in the 70th minute, when Kostic finds half a yard down the left and sends in a cross which the striker poked past McGregor. It was a typical poachers goal which Rangers defenders could have defended better.
