Rangers exit in agony despite Lovenkrands’ lightning strike

Villarreal 1 Rangers 1 (agg 3-3 Villarreal win on away goals)

They lost out over two legs on away goals to Villarreal.

McLeish’s four-and-a-half year rein will come to an end in the summer, and reports in the French press suggested that Rangers have already secured Paul Le Guen on a two-year deal as his successor.
