Balogun: Rangers Europa League Triumph Over Fenerbahçe Special
Ibrahim Lateef
Super Eagles defender Leon Balogun shared his thoughts after Rangers triumphed over Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahçe 3-2 on penalties in the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 second leg in Glasgow, reports BSNSports.com.ng.
The Nigerian remarked, "It was a tough match; we made it harder for ourselves than necessary. We struggled significantly on the pitch, and everyone saw that.
"However, we fought, stayed united, and persevered until the end. It was also a great moment for Jack Butland. Sometimes, you have to accept things as they are. We laid the groundwork last week and would have liked to score a goal early in the match to help us relax, but that didn’t happen.
"This moment is special regardless. Europe has always held significance during my time at the club. Thursday nights at Ibrox are truly unforgettable.
"The fans in the stands give their all. They face challenges too, especially considering what has happened off the pitch and our ups and downs in the league. I believe I speak for everyone when I say that this win is for them."
