  1. Good night

    FT: Rangers 3-1 RB Leipzig (3-2)

    Rangers need a miraculous set of results to catch Celtic over the last three games of the Scottish Premiership campaign, but this could yet be one of the Ibrox club's most memorable seasons with a Europa League final and a Scottish Cup final to come later this month.

    Those games are only three days apart, on 18 and 21 May.

    Before all that, Dundee United visit Govan on Sunday.

    Thanks for your company on another amazing European night for Rangers and join us over the weekend for all of the league action.

  2. 'You can't write a script better than this' - Van Bronckhorst

    FT: Rangers 3-1 RB Leipzig (3-2)

    Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst tells BT Sport: "It's very hard to find the words. It's been an amazing night.

    "We said before the game we'd do everything possible. The players were fantastic. You can't write a script better than this. We're all very proud. We toasted inside to Jimmy [Bell] for this one.

    "The two opening goals were fantastic, just like we wanted. We knew Leipzig would come at us, then to score in last 10 minutes gives you an enormous boost."

    On if he could have imagined this European run at the time of his appointment in December, the Dutchman adds: "It wasn't in my thinking. I'm very proud of the achievement.

    "Not many players can play European finals. It's not for every player. Once we're there, we need to do everything to win it. It's remarkable."

    The levels James Tavernier reaches game after game are phenomenal. You might have to X-ray him to see if he has an extra lung in there somewhere. He's the player to drag them back if they have been struggling

  6. 'Best night of my career by country mile' - Lundstram

    FT: Rangers 3-1 RB Leipzig (3-2)

    Rangers midfielder John Lundstram tells BT Sport: “I can’t put it into words. I came in with a good feeling, look at the place, but to actually go out and do it, I can’t put it into words.

    “We’ve been through so many ups and downs this season but to come through it and reach a Europa League final, wow.

    “It’s my best night by a country mile. Playing in the Premier League was a massive achievement, but to get to a European final...

    “Words can’t describe how much Jimmy [Bell] meant to everyone. He was the bedrock of the team. I want to dedicate the goal tonight to him, I love him to bits."

    On the prospect of winning the final, Lundstram adds: “We can do it, why not?”

  7. 'Nothing to fear in final'

    Zenit were by far and away favourites in 2008, but you can't beat Dortmund and Leipzig over two legs and fear Frankfurt.

  10. 'It's what you dream of' - Tavernier

    FT: Rangers 3-1 RB Leipzig (3-2)

    Rangers captain James Tavernier tells BT Sport: "We wanted to do it for Jimmy [Bell]. He will be looking down proud of us.

    "It's unbelievable. Towards the end Lunny [John Lundstram] came up with the goods. A European final, it's what you dream of.

    "We'll go there [Seville] full of confidence. Frankfurt got there for a reason, but it's one game and we'll fully back ourselves. We're in this to win it. We want to make all the fans proud."

  11. Check those passports...

    FT: Rangers 3-1 RB Leipzig (3-2)

    How many fans will Rangers take to Seville?

    The beautiful Andalusian city will be braced for an invasion on the scale of Celtic's famous 2003 journey.

    Eintracht Frankfurt took around 30,000 supporters to Barcelona in the quarter-finals, so Uefa could sell this final out several times over.

    Are you frantically checking if your passport is up to date?

  12. 'Rangers were all over them'
