2007 - Rangers 0 Barcelona 0 - European Champions League Group E (49,957)
Rangers produced a terrific,disciplined performance to earn a valuble Champions League point against a rather wastful Barcelona at Ibrox. Ronaldinho hit the crossbar,Messi had a shot cleared off the line and Henry headed over as the visitors threatened throughout. But the longer the game went on,the more belief Rangers seemed to muster. Daniel Cousin missed the best chance with ten minutes left as he lashed his first-time shot over the bar from inside the box.

Was that the game Ronnie McKinnon punched the ball instead of heading it,giving them a penalty.
