I'm over the moon Rangers got into the final (being a Rangers fan :laugh:) considering we ain't the best team plus we have a very hectic season but it'll make a good final :) Considering Dick Advocaat used to be our manager should make for a good atmosphere :D

Fingers crossed we can wrap up a quadruple

As when I saw it l!ve, each and every penalty should been retaken, as the keeper was not on his line when the shooter struck the ball.

They should get rid of this kind of finish and have a half way line to score a goal in 15 seconds shoot out.

Just like I predicted, Zenit won it all. I must say, Rangers played some boring football for 80 minutes.

That is the only tactic Rangers could do though. They just had to frustrate the hell out of Zenit and hope they got a bit of luck. They played largely the same way against Fiorentina!

Zenit deserved it though. Beating Villareal, Bayern Munich, Marseille and Bayer Leverkusen along the way.

Rangers were a disgrace! How the hell did they even reach the final i will never know and obviously the best team one on the night.

I think 2-0 is an understatment to Rangers because personally it should of been 3 or 4.

Rangers were to defensive and I think Walter made a mistake starting Darcheville I would of personally gone with Novo or Boyd.

It wouldn't of changed things at all. Zenit were the much better team, if we could even call Rangers a team on tonight display.

At least Rangers got what they deserve and that's not the UEFA cup. Zenit beat Munich 4-0 and that alone deserved what they got.

I was expecting much more from Rangers. They were playing like they were ahead in the game and defending the score and when they actually did come forward, they lobbed balls towards the box hoping for the keeper to slip and fall.

Zenit plays some very attractive football and I had noticed that a few rounds ago. On the other hand, Rangers got lucky against Sporting in Lisbon and they were very lucky against Fiorentina but they got what they had coming.

Agree with you about Rangers tactics. They didn't look like they wanted to win. Just to contain Zenit and nick a goal.

Not sure Zenit deserved it. They may have got to the final but it was their home performances that got them there. If they had played a team who actually played football instead of trying to bore the opposition to death they would have lost. In the main stages of the competition they only won one away game.

      Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
