Russell Martin Apologises to Rangers Fans and Details Positive Talks with Ibrox Chiefs

Rangers faced early setbacks including a red card, resulting in a 9-1 aggregate loss and raising concerns over manager Russell Martin's future at the club, officials said.

  • On Wednesday in Belgium, Rangers FC lost 6-0 to Club Brugge in the Champions League play-off second leg, losing 9-1 on aggregate.
  • Rangers faced this result after losing 3-1 at Ibrox last week and went down to ten men when Max Aarons received a straight red card early in the match.
  • Nicolo Tresoldi opened scoring quickly for Brugge, followed by goals from Hans Vanaken, Joaquin Seys , Aleksandar Stankovic, and Christos Tzolis, with Rangers showing poor defending throughout.
  • Rangers manager Russell Martin has secured just three victories in 10 matches and faces dwindling support from fans, with one remarking that it will be difficult for him to recover from this situation.
  • The defeat eliminates Rangers from Champions League football, drops them into the Europa League, and intensifies pressure ahead of Sunday’s Old Firm derby against Celtic.
