Colak sinks PSV Eindhoven to put Rangers in Champions League (The Guardian)

A second-half goal from Antonio Colak a 1-0 win – and 3-2 aggregate victory –over PSV Eindhoven in their Champions League qualifier.

“You want to find opportunities to press them, and we found them,” said Van Bronckhorst. A pressurised Armando Obispo at full-back passed to a nervy Walter Benítez, the goalkeeper who had dropped a clanger in the first leg. When Tom Lawrence rattling the angle of post and crossbar in the 57th minute, it signalled Rangers a foothold. “We used it to be ready,” said Rangers’ manager afterwards of that warm welcome. PSV fans had swarmed all over Rangers’ team bus, a delayed start requested after scenes Van Bronckhorst said were “the worst I’ve seen as a player or manager”. PSV had been given the weekend off by the Dutch football association, such levity not given Rangers by the SFA.

Atletico Madrid would consider themselves favourites in this group, but Napoli, Porto and Dinamo Zagreb won't be giving up any points easily.

Both clubs are looking sharp domestically so will no doubt deliver two unmissable group stage matches. Benfica is battle-tested at this level, while both Eintracht Frankfurt and Sevilla will be looking to show they can cope with the step up to the Champions League after showing they can win the Europa League in recent years. [UEFA club coefficient ranking](https://www.uefa.com/nationalassociations/uefarankings/club/#/yr/2022) with the exception of Pot 1. - Pot 2: Tottenham (England) Every possible fixture for this group is capable of delivering fireworks. Bayern and Juventus last faced off in the Champions League in 2016 when their Round of 16 tie was forced to extra time after both games ended 2-2. - Pot 2: Juventus (Italy) It's been over 20 years since AC Milan and Chelsea played a competitive match against one another so the time feels right to group them together. - Pot 2: Chelsea (England) It's impossible to resist not putting the two 2021/22 Champions League finalists together in the group stage. - Pot 2: Liverpool (England)

Should Dortmund land Dest from Barcelona, as has been rumored this week, that would take Barça out of the running here and make a Chelsea/Juventus-Dortmund-Rangers trio in any group even more of a lure from a U.S. So any combination that features one of Chelsea, Barcelona and Juventus out of Pot 2 and then Dortmund and Rangers will surely catch the eye of USMNT staff, players and supporters alike in the coming weeks (since Frankfurt and Dortmund can’t be drawn together given they are both Bundesliga clubs, there’s no scenario in which all four clubs in a group features U.S. Sadio Mané has gotten off to a brilliant start with Bayern Munich, and two of his former clubs are involved in the competition. With Russian clubs barred from competition due to its nation’s invasion of Ukraine, the past stipulation that kept Russian clubs and Ukrainian clubs apart in the group stage is no longer in play. A Bayern-Liverpool-Inter/Napoli-Marseille group also offers a similar effect—four clubs in Europe’s top five leagues all with the talent to reach the knockout stage. The remaining pots are set in club coefficient order (a formula that takes into account the results of each club in UEFA competitions based on performances over the last five seasons), which limits the potential for true groups of death but does offer some intriguing possibilities.
