Rangers were awarded a penalty for handball, and it was the winger who stepped up to take the spot-kick. Unfortunately, Grezda – who cost the Gers £2 million last summer, – put his attempt over the bar.

Rangers would go on to lose 2-1 with Jamie Barjonas – who won the penalty in the first place – scoring a screamer for the Light Blues.
