Rangers were defeated by FC Porto (3-1) in the last round of the regular phase of the Europa League. The result was taken on by coach Danny Röhl as the responsibility of his own team, who were “unlucky and unfortunate” in their reaction to the blue and white goals. The German coach also considered the Dragons as possible contenders for the title in the competition.
What is your take on the outcome?
“It was a good start, where we showed well what we should have done for 90 minutes. Up until the 20th minute we were good, the equalizer happened by chance, but I was disappointed with the 2-1. After that, we were unlucky and unfortunate.”
Do you see any advantages in being eliminated from Europe earlier?
“I think so, we have 15 more games in the League where we can focus to the fullest. We can use the weeks to stay fresh. Regarding ins and outs, there are players coming back from injury, others who may leave, we will need everyone.”
Is FC Porto a contender to win the Europa League?
“They have a good coach, a clear structure, and press well. They have a lot of individual quality in their players and excellent movement. So, why not? They managed to reach the top 8 of the regular phase and are the isolated leaders in their league. They have a lot of experience in Europe, so they have every chance to win the competition.”
