The big win came at home to Club Brugge, even though they also won the first leg 3-1 at Rangers. The substitutions were necessary, considering that Club Brugge were comfortable with their wins in both matches. I didn't imagine Rangers losing in this manner, as I initially thought they could match Brugge's strengths, as the two teams should be fairly evenly matched.

But the reality was the opposite, and Brugge performed much better in both away and home matches. This victory can boost the motivation of Brugge players because they have performed so solidly so far and hope for the best this season for Brugge in the Champions League.

Rangers "shouldn't" have been this bad. I mean we are talking about a team that was at what quarter finals or semi finals or something like that at Europa cup, and this season they are getting scored 9 goals total in 2 games at UCL qualifying games? It makes no sense and we should definitely assume they were doing something wrong during the summer, whatever it is.

Brugge looked great, I do not know if it was because Brugge was great or Rangers was terrible, but if Brugge keeps this confidence and play like this, they could seriously be in top 24 of UCL, and that is good enough for a club at that level. We are going to definitely see them have a lot better results and shouldn't be getting any shocks, of course only if they keep playing like this.
