Left a smoke descending upon hamen Park Rangers and aine meet at this stage of the competition for the seventh time the repeat of the very first League Cup Final 77 years [Applause] ago knocks it away to the gra slight opening for him coming into the draft for butland

Y some vital can’t believe Johnny Hayes left that ball I don’t think it was the best pass into him but now here SEMA who gets turns but Rangers actually work it well for once we get it in to obviously sea he just touch and turnning shoot so quick that

Obviously rivic can’t get near him but vasic Devin that gets it back out to the Croatian a bit of time to deliver here with a change of angle really good ball in it comes all the way across to mland back in from Taver mland arriving scores

But the whistle had already gone for the foul in the middle and Ross mosin’s moment of Glory is cut short well the Rangers players can complain but whether it’s a fil or not I don’t know but Don Robertson bwes whistle very early there this is obviously the one

That yeah you can see why it’s given sea gets up really well he does wins it on the back of ha but to squeeze it wide devet looks for B it misses everyone including suckler and butland Rangers emerge with it but give it back quickly what a ball in it was from Nicki

Devin you see they are first and foremost for me B barage has to go out and go tight was a fullback thater job stop the cross he doesn’t do it it allows him to get into a dangerous area he’s just been on the edges of the game

Too much for me I think up until now mland weaving run links with desx Mosen goes for it Roose with the first big save of the final to deny Ross Mosin AK his his area which would allow Mosen to get in behind him that’s what it comes from that

Defensive tackle is is right up Jimmy mcgraph up the line repelled by barisich now rubich is in trouble against Des stolen by Des he’s got Mand at the back post serial desas Roose comes up big and he gets slan rubic out of jail f look

Here we know rubic is going to try and win the ball every single time I think Des does the right thing turn down the goal chops back in it just feeds back into the feeling that civil desel doesn’t fill that Jersey canwell tackle comes in from Clarkson it’s a yellow card for the

Aline midfielder and a free kick to Rangers well Aline are just about to bring on a double Sub in Duke and James mcgar but this a tense moment it’s tavanir that takes it gets it over the wall and Kelly rose once again he is coming

Into his own in this second half you see it here perfectly so this time the left foot of B paric looks favorite for Rangers they’ve been camped in the aine area and again Rose risk yeah I mean it’s it’s a decent enough effort barisich gets to the by line Des

Is there so two tavir James tavir with the big moment for Rangers the captain comes up with one once again time after time it’s Taver for his Club absolute Captain he’s always there when you need him look barisich does unbelievably well just to create that

Yard the space and get the ball and I think Des does actually well to knock I think it as yansen just off his strike and Tav here it’s not the best touch in the world he has to wait for it to come down but yet again great finish and

Rangers getting into the lead I think the goalkeeper is he having a word with ruic in front of him does it take a deflection but it’s a horrible goal for aberin to lose but as Alan says tavanir comes up with big moments so often goalkeeper got to do better got to do

Better I’m still not sure whether rubic gets a touch or not but Duke on the chase Duke passed right and he was held it was just outside the box and a yellow card for Scott Wright Clarkson delivery is vital here it all comes down to this Clarkson front post

Oh it’s chaos in the 6yd Box the whistle goes Butler has it in his hand [Applause] tavanir with a bit of a swing and a miss a check from Don Robertson the full time whistle is blown James tavanir the Rangers Hero once again the waight is over it’s Rangers cup once

Again but it’s been the return through the leagues a title secured a Scottish cup delivered a European final Champions League football the European dream goes on what a journey Rangers have been on and now Rangers complete the set [Applause] the final piece of silverware returns to Ranger [Applause] possession
