EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing the thrilling UEFA Cup Semi-Final victory of Rangers Football Club against ACF Fiorentina in 2008. In this epic European night at Ibrox Stadium, Walter Smith's men showcased their determination and resilience to edge out their Italian opponents in a tense penalty shootout after a 0-0 draw over two legs. The atmosphere in the stadium was electric as both teams gave their all in the quest to reach the final. Rangers dominated possession in the first leg, held at Ibrox, but failed to find the back of the net despite several chances. The second leg in Florence saw a more evenly matched contest, with both sides creating opportunities but ultimately failing to break the deadlock after 120 minutes of football. As the match went into penalties, the tension in the air was palpable. Goalkeepers Allan McGregor and Sebastien Frey were the stars of the shootout, each making crucial saves to keep their teams in the competition. In the end, it was Rangers who emerged victorious, with Nacho Novo and Sasa Papac converting their spot-kicks to secure a 2-2 aggregate win and a place in the UEFA Cup final against Zenit St. Petersburg. This iconic photo encapsulates the excitement and drama of European football, as well as the unwavering spirit of Rangers Football Club. Walter Smith's team may have faced adversity on the pitch, but they never gave up and ultimately triumphed in the most dramatic of fashions. A true European night to remember.
