The Braga verdict on Rangers as goal hero Abel Ruiz fires a bullish warning to Ibrox

Braga matchwinner Abel Ruiz has warned Rangers he's heading to Glasgow to finish them off next week.

The Spanish striker struck in the first-half of Thursday night's Europa League quarter-final first leg to put Carlos Carvalhal's team in control ahead of the return at Ibrox.

And it means Giovanni van Bronckhorst 's side must come from behind if they want to meet either Atalanta or RB Leipzig in the last four.

Ruiz netted for Braga on their last visit to Ibrox on a night where Rangers roared back to win 3-2 from two goals down back in 2020.

But the 22-year-old former Barcelona prospect is hellbent on ensuring that doesn't happen again.

He said: "I scored the goal, but the whole team did a great job against a very physical and very good opponent. We played a complete game.

"I think we should have been more than one goal ahead at half time, but it was a difficult game to play because Rangers defended well.

"I think 1-0 is not much of a margin of victory for the second leg and we are well aware that we will get a tough evening in Glasgow.

"Rangers will want to play their game in Glasgow and we will want to play ours. At Braga, we think we can win every game and we are planning to go to Scotland
