The atmosphere at the Leipzig game was incredible. When lundstram scored the scenes, atmosphere and people around me celebrating is something I’ll remember for ever.

Can’t wait till I can take my little fella along, it won’t be long I don’t think.Same here with my wee boy glad for camera phones for memories
Re the Kiev game, it’s as much the context around it.As a younger bear, can i ask what was it that made that game so special, was there any background to the game for example
For years I thought that game against Parma couldn’t be topped.
But the Leipzig game Eclipes it.
To experience that with my dad, uncle, father in law and a few close friends Who sit together was something else.
Just watched the video again with mixed emotions.
Despite the outcome of the final the game against Leipzig will live with us forever.
The noise
The passion
The sheer emotion
Memories for a lifetime
Was at Kiev, Leeds,Parma and every other game mentioned as been fantastic for atmosphere with exception of Bayern 1972 ( too young).Obviously it's an age thing also
Leipzig was sensational as well as historic
But I still put Kiev in 87 as the most intense and noisest atmosphere I've been in at Ibrox.
Your Old Man is spot on, was at Leeds and Kiev, Leipzig was better.My old man said it was better than Leeds and Kiev
It's Leipzig for me, but I can only go back as far as Palma.
However, my old dad can go as far back as Leeds and Newcastle in the late 1960s, right through Bayern, Juventus, Kiev and Leeds etc.
He was at them all.
He still thinks Leipzig beats any of them.
I still love this videoYes, it’s undoubtedly the greatest for me.
Kiev was my high, but on the night I got over early with my brother & son, went to see Gough & Saint Phnx in the fanzone, in the stadium just after 7.30 and within ten minutes the volume of the singing was just special. I just sensed then that this was a special night in my life.
Throw in the early goal & then Lundstram’s late winner, then the singing after the match for 20-30 minutes ?
The greatest, bar none.

Yeah, The pulp fiction song went on for ages into half time vs braga, was very unusualI missed the leipzeg game... but the Braga game then right onto beating them at hampden was the best couple of days of football/atmosphere i can remember. I remember half time at braga people were singing when queuing up for pies etc it was bouncing
Totally it changes the experience of going hes also been to see us beat the Tims game was right at the back at hampden he loves the Rangers and hates 5hat lot as wellCan’t wait till I can take my little fella along, it won’t be long I don’t think.
Priceless memories mate
Mine too, better than Parma too.My old man said it was better than Leeds and Kiev
In a nutshell. That's the one song that would have cemented it as the loudest night at Ibrox since it was redeveloped.Leipzig + TBB would have needed stadium repairs!
So did i mate exact same infact after the sc semi i didnt know it, as was wrecked after game woke up next morning had an important phone call.to take. Knew my throat was sore but went to answer phone, but i couldnt speak had to get my son on call to tell them ill call back another day ive lost my voice ,was 3 days but was worth it.Leipzig and braga this season for me… Parma was the benchmark up to then.
With braga and the SC semi I lost my voice then it happened again with Leipzig!
100 % this , seen a few Leeds chucked in as well , Leeds isn’t even closeNot a hope, was out done by Parma and Parma was outdone by Leipzig.
The very same happened against Man Utd in the Champions League in 2003. The noise pre match was absolutely frightening. Blue sea of Ibrox on the back of the blue cards to hold up. TBB during the Champions League anthem was deafening. Ruined by Phil Neville of all people.i've always thought Leeds was a bit overrated. I would agree that it at the start of the match, the noise was defeaning, and at that point might've been the loudest I have heard. But Mcallisters goal flattened it, and (imho) it never really recovered. 2-1 on the night felt like we'd struggle away from home.
Even in that season, I thought the marseilles game was better, as a mirror image. Dead as we got a going over, but once we got back in it, the atmosphere was superb.
I remember this one clearly. We were coming into this off the back of that 6-2 defeat by Celtic. Confidence was not high. There was also the petrol crisis to contend with and it was a nightmare getting to the game on public transport. I had to pull my mate out of the subway at Cessnock as he was starting to take a panic attack as it was so overcrowded.A game that's overlooked in terms of noise and atmosphere is Sturm Graz in 2000,makes my top ten Euro nights
Place was bouncing ,one of those nights everything came off for us and we skelped them 5-0
I'm sure Ronald De Boer made his debut that night
I don’t get those saying Leeds. Great build up and teams coming out but they scored in 30 odd seconds and killed it stone dead. We came back into it and won but I remember everybody around me in West Enclosure and back on the bus believing 2-1 was not enough. Leeds were undefeated in 18 months at Elland Road
Parma was some night but Leipzig was on another level
