Connor Goldson on the Rangers factor that gives team an ‘extra push’ in Europa League final
CONNOR GOLDSON believes that the travelling supporters in Seville will give him and his Rangers team-mates an ‘extra push’ to bring home the Europa League trophy.
The Ibrox club face Eintracht Frankfurt in the showpiece occasion and Goldson is desperate to return to Glasgow with silverware in tow.
Rangers’ backing from their fans – particularly at home – has been instrumental in the team’s run to the final and Goldson paid tribute to the tens of thousands that have flown out to Spain to cheer on their heroes.
“We know the game plan, we know what we need to do, hopefully we can get the job done,” Goldson told BT Sport.
“[The fans] show up in their thousands wherever we go. They are here to give us the extra push we need.
“All eyes have been on the football, it’s been quite relaxed. We’re ready to go.
“[Winning] crosses your mind, but we have a job to do and we know we’re against a tough opponent.”
Why are you making commenting on HeraldScotland only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland’s conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don’t want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
