Football Update: Champions League News- Rangers win is a must
Champions’ league is the stage which has captured eyes of all the team fighting to qualify for the knockouts and every manager is willing to play his entire cards in trying so. Ranger’s manager, Walter Smith is hoping to beat the three time European champions,
Manchester United, this Wednesday 24 on home ground at Ibrox. The Scottish side is hoping for a victory over the Red Devils and desperately wishing to qualify to the knockout stages of the Champions league. It would not be an easy task however, Rangers improved
performances in the last couple of matches has given them a good reason to take 3 points needed to qualify for the knockouts.
Despite the high hopes and dreams, Rangers manager knows that his side is going to do more than their best to win this coming game. Beside of having the home advantage, their team lacks star players with tons of experience under their belt. With players
like Dimitar Berbatov, Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes, the Old Trafford superstars will be a hard contender to defeat. Adding to their supremacy, Manchester United needs a single point to go through the knock outs as compared to Rangers who face
a win-win situation.
The match will be full of excitement as it will be a show of superstars playing against a well organized and strong formatted team. Never the less, United will be favourites among the teams. Miller, a striker for rangers, is of the opinion that no matter
how hard they try, it is difficult for any team to win against a great team like Manchester United and if they have to win this match they will need more than luck to claim a famous victory.
No doubt Rangers are in top notch form at present, their chances seems a little low. They have a long list of injured players and they will be relying on the shuffling of the players. They have less defensive options as most of their defenders are either
injured or suspended. They are expected to come with a 5-4-1 formation tonight to test their skills against the English giants. Without the presence of Nikica Jelavic, James Beattie, Madjid Bougherra and Marurice Edu out of the squad because of injury, Rangers
are only relying on Sasa Papac to join the team at kick off.
Manchester United has drawn seven matches in the leagues and although there is a less probability of their drawing this one, one can’t simply predict the outcome. Although, what seems to be a one sided game, could reshape at any interval of the match and
could fall in either sides favour. Manchester United will be looking forward to catch an early lead over their rivals and to give fans a good value for their money. Wayne Rooney will be centre of attractions as he has yet to prove his goal scoring ability.
Since , United’s captain Darren Fletcher does not expect a warm reception at Ibrox , United’s main focus will be on continuing their winning form and qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions league.
