Rangers and PSV drew at Ibrox in the first leg (EPA)
Rangers travel to PSV with a place in the Champions League group stages on the line after a 2-2 draw at Ibrox last week left the play-off tie in the balance.
Gers attacker Abdallah Sima curled in a terrific first-leg opener just before the interval but the Dutch side levelled through midfielder Ibrahim Sangare just after the hour mark. Substitute Rabbi Matondo scored his first Light Blues goal in the 76th minute before PSV captain Luuk de Jong levelled with a header four minutes later, and the match ended in a repeat of last year’s score at the same stage of the competition.
The two-legged play-off encounter will determine which club is in the draw for the tournament proper on Thursday 31 August.
