4 - Rangers are the first Scottish team to score four away goals against a German side (4-2 vs Borussia Dortmund) in European competition since Hibernian won 4-0 at Rot-Weiss Essen in what was the only the fourth ever European Cup match back in September 1955. Overdue.

He did score a penalty, but it was still quite a wasteful evening for the Spaniard.
