Rangers paid the perfect tribute to late captain Fernando Ricksen by edging Feyenoord in a rousing Europa League win at an emotional Ibrox.
Sheyi Ojo’s first-half thunderbolt secured three points after James Tavernier missed an early penalty.
There was a minute’s silence pre-match and applause in the second minute in tribute to Ricksen, who died on Wednesday after losing his battle with motor neurone disease.
Rangers go level with Porto in Group G.
The Portuguese side beat Young Boys 2-1 at home, with Steven Gerrard’s side travelling to Switzerland in their next match.
Feyenoord, meanwhile, will host Porto next, having grown into the game at Ibrox late on but failing to land a decisive blow as Allan McGregor made several good saves to keep them out. (BBC)
