In this moment, captured by Lynne Cameron during the European nights of football, Daniel Cousin of Rangers Football Club celebrates after securing a crucial 0-2 victory over Sporting Lisbon in the quarter-finals. The tension was palpable at Ibrox Stadium as the Scottish giants faced the Portuguese powerhouse in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup quarter-finals on March 12, 1992. With the scoreline delicately poised at 0-0 after the first leg in Lisbon, Rangers knew they had to score at least once to keep their European dreams alive. Enter Daniel Cousin, a towering figure in the Rangers attack, who rose above the Sporting Lisbon defense to head home a corner kick, sending the home crowd into raptures. The goal was a testament to the team's resilience and determination, and it put Rangers in a commanding position going into the second leg. Rui Patricio, the Sporting Lisbon goalkeeper, could only watch in despair as the ball found the back of the net. The Portuguese international had been instrumental in his team's run to the quarter-finals, but he was powerless to prevent Rangers from taking a commanding lead. The victory was a significant one for Rangers, who had not reached the semi-finals of a European competition since 1967. It was a night that the fans would remember for years to come, and it marked the beginning of a remarkable European run that saw Rangers reach the final of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. This iconic photograph by Lynne Cameron captures the raw emotion and excitement of European football, and it serves as a reminder of the thrilling nights of football that have defined Rangers' rich history.
