I think Rangers are getting a lot of unfair criticism for their style of play. Yes, it's incredibly boring and unattractive, but Rangers are playing to their strengths. And so far, it's worked, so why should they change their system? They've beat Lyon, Bremen, Panathanaikos, Sporting and now Fiorentina using it, so they've obviously found a system that works for them.

Now, the players that played last night, aren't great players. They're not world beaters. That's why they can't go out and play like Barcelona. They've not got the attacking players at their disposal for them to do it.

Considering the injuries they've got (about 9 first picks i think) I'm amazed they've reached the final. Hell, I'm sure they're amazed they reached the final. I know I've spoken to fans who are astounded considering the way they've played, and how horrible a season they had last year.

I say more power to them. And I'm sure they won't play like they did last night in the final, they'll attack a bit more, since it's a final and it's a one off. They've also got some players returning from injury.

Yes it's anti-football, and rubbish to watch, but if it works for them, more power to them.

I hope Zenit wins. They deserve to be in the final and good luck to them. I am not sour about this loss at all. I am extremely disappointed in what I saw, but the better team that day won. They simply played brave and came out on top. Fair and square. Much respect!

Anti-football my ring.

11 defenders with a fat gentleman up front to hoof to is the way the game HAS to be played.

Ram your passing nonsense.

Haha, I remember that!!! Tremendous atmosphere inside the stadium!!! I remember masses of Celtic fans singing. That was a really entertaining final. Deco, Derlei!!!, Mourinho, Sean Connery, extra time........

Fully deserved, congrats to Zenit. Thank goodness Anti-Football didn't come out triumphant.

Exactly my thoughts. But to be honest, what was Rangers' plan in this game? Defend throught the whole game?90 minutes passed until they felt it's time to attack a little.

Nice match, Zenit is a really good team, I'm fan of Celtic but I didn't support the russians, the gers have played a great season and pay respect to them, but in a final only one team can win the title......8|
Congratulations to the russians guys!:)

Well their game plan was defend for the whole game and hoof long balls to their strikers in hopes of getting something out of it. Thankfully, it didn't pay off..

Zenit were the best team. Congratulations to them.

But Rangers did deserve to be there. What did you expect, them to stand back and let the teams show off their skills all competition?
