After Maribor: Ufa FC


Recommended Posts

FC Ufa has just knocked out Progrews Niederkorn, 4 -3 on agg. with the winner  coming in the 94th min.

 

When Rangers disposes of the Slovenes, the team will face a trip to Ufa, the capital of the Russian Republic of Bashkortostan. 

 

It's bloody miles away, and located a few hundred miles north of the Caspian Sea. 

 

Shitski, as they say down the Broomloan Road.

We probably couldn't have rigged a passage to the group stages much better than this. Get through tonight and it might be said that the toughest obstacles on the road to the groups are already behind us.

 

Who would have thought it just a couple of months ago when we brought in a 'rookie under 18's coach' to great derision from the Scottish media but not from England.

Where is the logic here? Any side qualifying for Europe in Russia are going to be fairly decent.

Outstanding effort/result.

IMO we have two successful teams:-

1) The players on the park adhering to their orders.

2) The Manager and his team who obviously are doing their homework with total respect from the players.

Looking forward to next round.

We do actually have a rather rotten record against team from the former Eastern block and as of now, we've played 6 and haven't lost a game. 

 

Folk over on FF were watching Progres vs Ufa and said they were both dire ... and a lot worse than what we have played. Remains to be seen, but we should be able to navigate  that fixture.
