Anyone think we wouldnt win that?

[brobert99]

At half time I thought it would end 0-0 but better second half and a great 3 points

 

[scobie1873]

Always felt we’d get the result.
A great sign, while not playing great.

 

[Remo-town]

We beat Porto last season and lost to Hamilton. It doesn’t matter if Poznan are better than Killie, if we perform like we did tonight on Sunday then we’ll be in trouble.

I’m glad of the win but we didn’t play well. No harm in saying we could, and should, play better.

Try and enjoy the run we're on, we wont play well every game. Rangers arent world beaters. The fact they can win without playing well, especially in europe should please you.

 

[Glasgow Rangers (Sco)]

All week I thought zthis would be another Spartak Moscow type game

Big result

 

[usbear]

No but I had a feeling it wasn’t going to be a walk in the park

 

[DocBlue]

Most impressive thing is how the management now spot the issues, instruct the players, and we go on to dominate games.

 

[alfreroofe]

Only caught glimpses as had a business call I had to deal with but looked like an open game. Clean sheet, a win and a couple of days rest before another huge game. Great stuff.

 

[Balogun1]

We were not great tonight but a win is a win. We will need to be better going forward but another 3-4 points probably does it.

 

[Chester Loyal]

I am enjoying it and it does please me.

Why are you so annoyed by me saying we need to play better on Sunday if we’re to beat Killie?

 

[Aaritalo]

It's a great feeling isn't it, the team has the confidence too.

Even when the general play isn't clicking you know we have the quality to make the difference- especially with Borna there.

The quality on the bench is unreal this season too, being able to bring on Jack, Morelos and Aribo shows the depth we have.

 

[simply_the_best]

As fans we need to get away from thinking 'we will win every game 4-0', it is nonsense.

They were a very well organised team and we should be buzzing for three points. We need to win ugly at times and this is a perfect example of this.

They scored twice v Benifica, no mugs, that was a fine win tonight.

 

[StaunchEnclosure]

We can lose our next two games and Poznan or Liege can win both and we'll still be second. Not a bad place to be!

 

[GallowgateBlue]

I didn't think we were going to win it. I knew it. Genuinely not just saying that. Sounds and feels absolute mad to have that feeling again.

 

[Remo-town]

Not particularly at you mate, but after reading the negativity of the match thread I got a bit demented.

Thats the only way I get to keep up with what's happening at the game and its bloody soul destroying at times.

 

[Hillheadbear]

Sat there at half time thinking not great but never in danger. Can't remember the last time I was this confident in a Rangers team getting the result.

We have our best centre forward on the bench. This is how far we have come

Another game and another game where we don't concede a shot on target.

Until Alfie scored, I thought we could be looking at a draw. We really were not convincing in front of goal and we looked much better with Aribo and Morelos in the team.

 

[Hotdog]

Buzzing to have 6 points already in this group, sets us up nicely.

 

[Jackhammer]

I never thought we would lose what a great feeling that is

 

[Hurleyreyes]

Half time I would've put money on 1 0 to us.

But then again if I was a poznan fan I would've said the same reversed.

Good team. Hopefully one or both games drawn against Liege and we get results against Benfica.

 

[car93los]

We've went through too much to have the optimism and confidence we had pre 2012.

It will take another couple of seasons, or this season's league championship, to get me to chill a bit.

Happy to be stressed over 90+ minutes when we win.

This is from a guy who was in Lyon when we won 3-0 and on the 92nd minute I still worried we might blow it

During the recent 2-0 OF win I turned to my mate and said 'we're not losing this now' he calmly pointed out that there were 92 minutes and 30 seconds on the clock.

 

[Albertz Loyal]

I'll give you one thing, I was never worried we'd lose a goal.

Ha.. I was at the end

 

[CaptainCourageous]

I thought we had to keep plugging away, remain patient and a goal would come.

I've no worries about us in Europe what so ever.

 

[Azzurri]

Ha.. I was at the end

A result in Europe with with 3 points is a good result.

 

[Mackania]

Was pretty confident we would scrape through. Great win considering the team looked a bit weary.

I have a feeling now that we will wrap up qualification with a home win vs Standard. I think even if we lose both games vs Benfica it'll be enough. If Standard get a single point in the two games vs Lech then that's all we need, right?

 

[rossgers]

I was certainly getting frustrated early 2nd half when Hagi started playing for Poznan.

We did step it up for 10 minutes and that was all that was needed thankfully.

Hagi looked like he put his boots on the wrong feet second half. Bench on sunday I suspect.

 

[Trigga34]

I actually thought we were comfortable again

 

[Goity]

Sat there at half time thinking not great but never in danger. Can't remember the last time I was this confident in a Rangers team getting the result.

We have our best centre forward on the bench. This is how far we have come

Another game and another game where we don't concede a shot on target.

Before we kicked a ball tonight I had a horrible feeling we would drop points. We're on great form, they are 10th in Poland and took a pasting off Benfica. Script was set for a 'shock'.

Praise be Alfie.

 

[Mr Wilton]

As good as a 4-0 win that

Craigan talks some amount of shite!

 

[Spudgun]

I'll put my hands up and admit that at one stage I thought we were going to blow it - think it was around the 55 minute msrk, when they'd created a few decent opportunities.

Glad to be wrong though.

 

[True Blue]

We were much better in the second half. Although Lech had a fair amount of possession overall they never really posed a huge threat.
They are a hard working side though and we will probably need to be better in the return game.

 

[shug1971]

Felt a goal was coming, quite a frustrating game. But a wins a win 6 points from 2 games will do me.

Exactly. Said to my mate it’s coming literally 1 minute before the goal. How anyone can be disappointed is beyond me

 

[Kwodman]

Exactly. Said to my mate it’s coming literally 1 minute before the goal. How anyone can be disappointed is beyond me

We went through a wee phase in the 2nd half you could tell it was coming. As we pushed poznan back.
Job done 3 points and now on to Kilmarnock .

Which is the bigger game tbh

 

[Thommo2006]

Lech were a horrible side to play against, and everything I detest in football. They liked indulging in endless sneaky fouling, but went to ground for fouls at any opportunity. Scumbag outfit.

One of them went down screaming when Kent was close to them the ref gave the free kick before he even hit the deck lol

 

[UncleG]

My opinion at half time was we were either winning or losing it one nil

 

[Twosignals]

There was one area that I was afraid of with us, and that was taking Poznan for granted and complacency.

 

[devilman]

Nope - we looked like we were going to win it.

 

[Thommo2006]

I am enjoying it and it does please me.

Why are you so annoyed by me saying we need to play better on Sunday if we’re to beat Killie?

We will play better. We are doing what we need to to win games

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

Weren't going to concede. Defence was utterly comfortable.
Just a question of turning up the pressure till the goal came.

 

[knightswood_bear]

I thought we would score tbh.

I have been more confident in games like this with no supporters in the stadium weirdly!

 

[monkey magic]

One of them went down screaming when Kent was close to them the ref gave the free kick before he even hit the deck lol

It was embarrassing, mate. Raking opponents ankles, then going to ground when anyone came near them. They deserve to finish last in the group for their scumbaggery itself.

 

[Jase]

Might have been a different story if somebody had told that lot where the goals were.

They got 10 pops at us. That's too many.

But it did seem comfortable enough in the end.

 

[BillStruthsGreenhouse]

I was certainly getting frustrated early 2nd half when Hagi started playing for Poznan.

We did step it up for 10 minutes and that was all that was needed thankfully.

I know what you mean, but I think you are being a wee bit rough on Hagi with your comparison.

My take was he was seeing a fair bit of the ball and half of it was coming off and the other half he was getting squeezed by experienced opponents.

I spotted Davis a few times coming across to cover him and sweep up.

 

[Leo_Ger]

[nelster]

I’m sorry. We werent scoring until someone came on and actually played centre forward which in turn stopped them blocking us 30 yards higher.

Well worked goal a great sign only having to show 4 minutes at full throttle to win group stage matches.

Got the goal went into holding mode at a much better level.

 

[RenfrewBear72]

At 60 minutes when Alfie came on I cracked a beer and went "Alfie is gonna do the biz here".

I trust this team to step up a gear and get a draw next week it's mental. You just trust this squad now we have matured

Btw that Barisic cross, that's the difference this year, genuine world class quality in the key areas that we can depend on - it's not just "get it to Alfie and hope he scores", even though he did tonight you get what I mean.

 

[stein and johnston]

As Ally said before the game started, we are now expected to win these games.
I would imagine if there was a full capacity at Ibrox tonight there would have been a few grumbles coming from the stands, as the minutes ticked by,which may have found it’s way onto the pitch.
But the lads got the job done which is the main thing.

 

[TQ3]

Watching our pattern of play when they were in possession was very reassuring. We made them play down the sides and then stopped them coming inside to get a pop at goal, leaving them throwing deep crosses and hopeful through balls over the top. We are a well drilled unit now, possibly the best defence I have witnessed, only time and trophies will confirm that.

 

[instructor]

I only saw the highlights.
I think it was fairly even. Lech Poznan had several half chances but no stick on ones. We won because of a great cross and a great header. A tight match which we edged. The sort of thing we can do now.

 

[Wugs]

 

[Ally’s Golden Boot]

Was always confident we would score. Tonight’s result is even more impressive than some of our recent results IMO. Didn’t play that great but still got the job done against a very decent team. It’s been a very long time since we have done that.
