- Advance, 9 p.m. 26. Van Bronckhorst wants to make 100,000 Scots who have traveled with him proudly. Giovanni van Bronckhorst is hoping to give Rangers fans a European trophy again after years. “We want to make our fans proud,” the Dutch coach told the Scottish big club in the run-up to Wednesday’s Europa League final against Eintracht Frankfurt in Seville. 100,000 Scots are expected to travel to Seville. Captain James Tavernier, top scorer in the European League with seven goals, agreed with him: “We want to make history and bring the cup back home.” “I see it happening too. The confidence in the group is great. With the support of our great fans we can make it happen. Frankfurt may not be an easy opponent, but it is a possible card.” Van Bronckhorst spoke respectfully of the German opponent in the press conference. “It’s a well-organised team with fast and dangerous players. Frankfurt played really well against Barcelona and West Ham United. They deserve to be in the final.” Rangers FC has so far won one European trophy, and that was in 1972 when the club won its second European Cup at the time. Eintracht Frankfurt was also successful once in Europe, winning the UEFA Cup in 1980. In addition to the European League itself, Rangers and Frankfurt will also have a ticket to the main draw for next season’s Champions League at stake on Wednesday; †
