Europa League Wrap: Keane's Ferencvaros Beat Rangers
Rangers conceded a stoppage-time equaliser and a late headed winner due to defensive errors, ending their Europa League campaign, despite taking an early lead.
- Thursday's Europa League group fixture in Budapest saw Robbie Keane's Ferencvaros beat Glasgow Rangers 2-1, ending Rangers' tournament hopes.

- Bojan Miovski opened the scoring with an acrobatic strike, Bence Otvos levelled in the fifth of five added minutes, and Manuel Fernandez was wrong-sided on the decisive second goal.

- If Rangers want to get anywhere, changes will likely be needed in January as visible frailties at the back have been hurting results, critics say.
