Rangers beat Sporting Lisbon last night.

Last time they played was when Rangers beat them in the 2nd round en route to the European Cup in 1972.

Over 2 legs (2nd round) they drew 6-6. After extra time Lisbon won the penalty shoot out.

So how come Rangers went through?

Only asking this question because I only found this out myself today!

was the penalty shoot-out just for a bit of ribald fun, like a band will do an encore regardless of whether anybody calls for one.

No but close.

The penalty shoot out was played in error. Why?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 3:58 pm

did the referee misunderstand the away goals rule

ROSSKEEN · Post by **ROSSKEEN** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 4:05 pm

Thats the one.

It was only brought in for the first time around then.

He forgot it and played the penalties.

I vaguely remember it being Tony Hart. I could be totally wrong though.
