Panathinaikos vs Rangers LIVE score and goal updates from the Champions League clash in Athens

Some Like It Hot.

But will Rangers enjoy the heat of Greece? They will have to cope with sweltering conditions in the Olympic Stadium in Athens to continue their Champions League journey.

Thanks to a 2-0 win in the first leg at Ibrox, Russell Martin's side are in pole position for the lucrative league phase of UEFA's top competition.

However, there is plenty of work still to be done for the Light Blues and if Panathinaikos had been more clinical – and kept 11 men on the park – it might have been a different story in the first leg.

Martin will prefer to look at the positives and that's the fact they kept a clean sheet and scored a couple of goals as he goes about trying to finish the job.

A tie against Servette or Viktoria Plzen in the third qualifying round is the reward for the winners of this one and it would be a huge boost to the new Rangers regime following their summer takeover.

Hamza Igamane and new signing Thelo Aasgaard failed to make the trip, which comes just days before Saturday's Scottish Premiership opener at Motherwell.

Rangers will want to go into that one in a high and they can do that by securing their place in the next qualifying round.
