Rangers Draw 2-2 Club Brugge in Martin's First Match

News summary

Rangers, under new manager Russell Martin, played their first pre-season friendly at Ibrox against Club Brugge, ending in a 2-2 draw. The match featured only one of the club's five summer signings in the starting lineup, with Max Aarons playing 60 minutes and Emmanuel Fernandez coming on as a substitute; other new recruits were introduced to fans at halftime. Rangers faced an early deficit, going 2-0 down within 13 minutes, but rallied with goals from Mohamed Diomande and Finlay Curtis to secure the draw. This fixture is the team's only pre-season friendly before their critical Champions League qualifying first leg against Panathinaikos, a tie that will set the tone for Martin's tenure. The club is undergoing a period of transition with new ownership led by an American consortium, and Martin aims to implement a possession-based style to improve on a challenging previous season. Fans have access to the friendly via Rangers TV, as it is not televised live, and tickets were available following general sale.
