    The roots of this run to Seville can be traced back to a balmy night in Govan in July 2018. Steven Gerrard took charge of Rangers for the first time in a competitive match in a 2-0 win over KF Shkupi of Macedonia in the first qualifying round of the Europa League. Such was the club's standing on the continent at the time it would be the first of fo...

    So how did they get here? Well, for starters, Rangers were already a good, modern European side before Giovanni van Bronckhorst was brought in to replace the Aston Villa-bound Gerrard in late November. Gerrard's legacy at Rangers does not stop at winning the club's 55th title, but instead extends to the continent where he made the Gers relevant aga...

    Carlos Carvalhal's side celebrated that first-leg win as though they were already in the semi-finals. Post-match, however, Van Bronckhorst seemed unperturbed: "We know what the task is. It is the final game of this tie and I know at home, with the crowd behind us as always, that we can give a good performance." It was a muted call to arms of sorts ...

    Frankfurt are unbeaten in the competition heading into the Europa League final and will be the third German side Rangers have faced in this year's tournament. They have a decent European pedigree, losing that famous 1960 European Cup final to the great Real Madrid but they did win the Uefa Cup in 1980. They won the DFB-Pokal in 2018 but a disappoin...

    The stats suggest that there is not a great deal between the sides.

    First and foremost it would catapult this particular squad into folklore. The winning European Cup Winners' Cup side of 1972 contained some giant names in the club's history, including former captain John Greig, Sandy Jardine, Derek Johnstone and Colin Stein. James Tavernier has the opportunity to put his name among the legends of the club. A victo...

    Modern football trends suggest that Rangers were not supposed to reach the final. A starting XI that cost a little over £13m to assemble - including £7m alone on Kent - had no right on paper to eliminate RB Leipzig but that has been the story of this run to Seville. Barcelona, serial tournament winners Sevilla, Real Betis and Real Sociedad were in ...
