“Deplorable” – Rangers: Ally McCoist criticizes John Lundstram for his actions against Benfica at Ibrox, calling them “unacceptable.”

The Portuguese visitors proceeded to win the second leg of the Europa League last-16 on Thursday, March 14, 1-0, to advance 3-2 overall.

[14 March, 6:24 p.m.] McCoist commented during TNT Sports’ live coverage of the game, “I don’t mind Lundstram giving the ball away – he takes his mind off it and it’s accidental.”

However, what comes next is intolerable. Di Maria cannot possibly be let inside; it is not feasible.

Rangers are eliminated from the Europa League by Benfica.

Although Lundstram has been outstanding this season, neither he nor any other home player had a great evening for Rangers on a sad day.

The Gers were eliminated from Europe after Rafa Silva scored a breakaway goal in the second half, which was always the most likely method Benfica would score.

Too many individual mistakes were made, and the team’s configuration allowed the opposition to frequently move ahead.

Rangers put all the effort to achieve a 2-2 draw in the first leg, but they were unable to complete the task at home.

Though Philippe Clement is extremely disappointed with the result, the season still has a chance to produce a domestic treble.

If that is to happen, we must take something away from this heartbreaking loss at Ibrox.
