EDITORS COMMENTS
Great moment in Rangers Football Club history captured in this stunning photograph: Madjid Bougherra's goal against Portsmouth at Fratton Park in a pre-season friendly, August 2008. The Algerian international defender scored a brilliant volley from the edge of the box, leaving the Portsmouth goalkeeper with no chance. The goal was a morale-boosting moment for the Rangers squad, who were preparing for the upcoming Scottish Premier League season. Bougherra, who had joined Rangers the previous year, had already shown glimpses of his quality, but this goal announced his arrival as a key player for the club. The goal was a team effort, with Lee McCulloch providing the cross from the right wing. The crowd went wild as the ball hit the back of the net, and the celebrations began. The victory over Portsmouth was an important one for Rangers, who were looking to bounce back from a disappointing campaign the previous season. The team went on to have a successful season, winning the SPL title and reaching the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup. Bougherra was a regular in the team, making 42 appearances and scoring three goals. This photograph, taken by Kirk O'Rourke, perfectly encapsulates the excitement and energy of the moment. The expression on Bougherra's face as he watches the ball soar into the net is a testament to his skill and determination. The sea of blue and white shirts in the background represents the passionate support of the Rangers fans, who were behind the team every step of the way. This photograph is a reminder of a great moment in Rangers Football Club history and the contribution of Madjid Bougherra to the team's success.
