Genk Defeats 10-Man Rangers at Ibrox, Increasing Pressure on Manager Martin

Genk defeated 10-man Rangers 1-0 in their Europa League opener at Ibrox, with former Celtic striker Oh Hyeon-gyu scoring the winning goal after missing an earlier penalty. Rangers' midfielder Mohamed Diomande was sent off in the 41st minute, making the match more challenging for the home side. Despite Rangers' goalkeeper Jack Butland saving a late penalty from Oh, Genk held on to their narrow lead. The loss has increased pressure on Rangers' manager Russell Martin, as the team sits second bottom in the William Hill Premiership and faces criticism from fans. Rangers showed some attacking effort, including a John Souttar header cleared off the line and Mikey Moore's missed chances, but failed to capitalize. The match highlighted Martin's ongoing struggles to secure positive results ahead of their next league game against Livingston.
