EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant moment at Ibrox Stadium, former Rangers Football Club player Nacho Novo pays tribute to his beloved teammate and friend, Fernando Ricksen, during the Scottish Cup Champions Tribute Match. The event, held in honor of Ricksen's battle against Motor Neurone Disease, brought together current and former Rangers players, as well as fans, to celebrate the Dutch defender's illustrious career and raise awareness for the charity that bears his name. Novo, a fan favorite during his time at Rangers from 2003 to 2007, is seen here in action, with the Scottish Cup trophies from Rangers' historic 2003 victory proudly displayed on the field behind him. The trophies serve as a reminder of the success Ricksen helped bring to the team during his tenure from 2000 to 2006. Ricksen, who was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013, was unable to attend the match due to the progression of his condition. However, his presence was felt throughout the day as the crowd roared in support of the cause and his legacy. The Tribute Match was a testament to the enduring bond between Ricksen and the Rangers family, and the unwavering commitment of the football community to come together in times of need. The event raised over £300,000 for the Fernando Ricksen Foundation, which supports research into Motor Neurone Disease and provides essential equipment and care for those affected by the condition. As Novo and his fellow players took to the field, they honored Ricksen's memory and continued his legacy of determination, courage, and passion for the beautiful game. The day was a reminder that, even in the face of adversity, the power of football to bring people together and make a difference is unmatched.
