Rangers hero reveals 'the amazing thing' about Europa League trailblazers as he wishes for fitting tribute to lost legends

Craig Moore insists the road to Seville for Rangers has been a story of triumph over adversity and the desire to follow heroes and legends into club immortality.

The former Light Blues skipper believes an emotional undercurrent has been driving a Europa League campaign that will now lead to a climax in the final against Eintracht Frankfurt on May 18.

After another astonishing Ibrox night of drama, a 3-1 win over RB Leipzig lining up a final spot against the Germans, Moore believes a season where the club has lost iconic servants Walter Smith and Jimmy Bell now has an unsung group of players walking in the footsteps of Gers giants.

He said: “The amazing thing about this group of players has been the fact they don’t have much gold dust. All season they have been there to be shot at in terms of how things have been going domestically at times.

“They just keep picking themselves up and finding ways of achieving greatness.

“It’s not only been a really tough week for the club, it’s been a really tough year in terms of losing heroes and legends.

“Walter and most recently Jimmy are true legends of this club and it’s a huge loss not to have them around.

“There would be no more fitting tribute to them than a set of players making heroes and legends of themselves.
