Rangers vs Unirea Urziceni Highlights: Champions League Highlights

Rangers’ Champions League aspirations were shattered after an embarrassing defeat to Unirea Urziceni at Ibrox. A second 4-1 home European defeat in succession leaves the hosts at the bottom of Group G with one point from three games and facing the return game in Romania in a fortnight knowing only a victory will do.

Pedro Mendes second-minute drive, which took a deflection off Unirea midfielder Ricardo Vilana before going in, put the hosts inbto an early lead. However, in a bizarre night of football in Govan, the Light Blues proceeded to concede four goals, two of them own goals, while missing a spot kick at 1-1.

After Marius loan Bilasco equalized just after the half-hour mark, Steven Davis had a spot-kick denied by Unirea keeper Daniel Tudor. Half-time substitute Kyle Lafferty, on for Mendes, helped a Bruno Fernandes flick past Allan McGregor and into his own net before Lee McCulloch left McGregor stranded with a header just before the hour mark. More woe followed when Pablo Brandan made it four to send the home fans heading to the exits with 25 minutes remaining.

Olympiakos claimed a barely deserved Champions League victory over Standard Liege thanks to a stoppage time goal from substitute Ieroklis Stoltidis.

Olympiakos improved after the break but it was Standard who had the better chances, however Stoltidis converted deep into stoppage time to seal a surprise victory for the hosts.

Debrecen vs Fiorentina Highlights: UEFA Champions League Highlights

Fiorentina edged a seven-goal thriller against Debrecen in Budapest to keep up the chase with Lyon at the top of Group E. Peter Czvitkovics opened the scoring in the second minute for the home side, but two goals from Adrian Mutu and an Alberto Gilardino strike turned the game on its head before 20 minutes had even been played.

Gergely Rudolf reduced the arrears once again in the 28th minute, but Mario Santana restored Fiorentina’s two-goal cushion in the 37th minute before Adamo Coulibaly made it a nervous ending for the Italians with his side’s third and final goal in the 88th minute.
