We are lucky it is only 2-0 says Rangers

Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst said his players were lucky it is only 2-0 after they were beaten byUnion Saint-Gilloise in the first leg of their Champions League third qualifying round tie.Last seasons Europa League NFL Baltimore Ravens Jersey runners-upstarted the game in Belgium brightly, butthe hosts grew into their first ever Champions Leaguegame, and a first half finish from captain Teddy Teuma was added to by a controversial Dante Vanzeir Jonathan Ogden Jersey penalty in the 76th minute to give them a two goal advantage.Van Bronckhorst was far from happy with the Scottish sides performance and result, one which hasleftRangers staring down the barrel ahead of the second leg at Ibrox next week.The former Netherlands international told Premier Sports: The performance today was below-par.They just dropped deep, so that means they wereafraid. But eventually, we didnt do anything with our ball po se sion and were sloppy.Slowly, they became better and better, and we didnt react well after that. We were never really in the game. The Gers now face an uphill task Matt Skura Jersey if they are to reachthe Champions League group stage for the first time since the 2010-11 season, with the winner of this tie going into a play-off against PSV or Monaco.Not all hope is lost though, with Van Bronckhorsts side having pulledoff a number of Brandon Williams Jersey memorable second-legcomebacks at Ibrox in last seasons run to the Europa League final.And the 47-year-oldis confident his side can produce yet another dramatic turnaround back on home turfin Glasgow.He added: We are still in the tie, 2-0 difference, we are capable of Justin Bethel Jersey making that upat Ibrox on Tuesday.But first of all, we need to concentrate on our performance. If we have the same performance like we did today, then we have no chance.Im confident that if we change those things around, we have to have a much better performance next week.
