Rangers Review editor Jonny McFarlane gives his on-the-whistle reaction to a night of high drama in the Netherlands.

Manager proves his chops again

A less than perfect home leg result. An Alfredo Morloes sideshow. The team bus delayed due to unfortunate fan antics. Such circumstances have stopped more storied Rangers managers in their tracks before. While Gio isn't the combustible, alpha male that you might normally associate with his position, his cool-as-ice persona has proven indispensable on European nights. He's earned both respect and trust with his ability to outmanoeuvre better-resoureced opponents and he did it once again in Eindhoven against a very, very good PSV outfit. It was a remarkable display and showcased everything that's been good about his tenure. Aggressive, ambitious, together. This deserves to be remembered, as it will be, as a momentous night in over 150 years of history.

Lionhearts to a man

Rangers have more than just good players - inherent in this squad is a lion-hearted quality forged in competitive fires over four years together. And it's not just the experienced lads - new players like Colak, Lawrence and Tillman look as if they have been part of this for years. Passion was evident from the get-go and never for a second wavered. Tonight every man stopped just short of leaving blood on the field as they toiled against an opponent capable of slick, electric passing movements. Somehow, they rose as individuals to deliver a Titanic team display. Every ounce of effort they had was left on the field.

Finances unlocked

The £30m riches available in the Champions League promised land is a huge boon to the club but far more important is what hearing that music will mean for Rangers' stature.  It represents the final phase of recovery from the vandalism of 2012, and should the odd fan shed a tear on hearing Zadoc the Preist echo around the famous old stadium we should all understand why. We can finally say it. The Journey is truly over.
