Rangers crash out of Europa League as Derek McInnes’s winless start goes on

The Guardian · 2 hours ago

Rangers were eliminated from the Europa League qualifiers after drawing 1-1 with Jagiellonia Bialystok at Ibrox, losing 3-2 on aggregate. The result prolongs Derek McInnes’s winless start as manager to four competitive matches and leaves the club facing early-season pressure, although it moves into the Conference League playoff round.

Lawrence Shankland’s 19th-minute penalty briefly levelled the tie, but Nik Prelec equalised for Jagiellonia in the 65th minute as Rangers struggled to respond. Hearts also exited the Europa League despite a credible 1-1 draw with Benfica, who progressed 7-2 on aggregate; both Scottish clubs will now play Conference League playoffs, while Hibernian reached that stage after a 2-1 aggregate win over Shkendija.

  • Rangers exit Europa League qualifiers after 3-2 aggregate defeat.
  • McInnes remains without a win in four matches.
  • Hearts and Rangers enter Conference League playoffs.
