Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos celebrates
Glasgow Rangers sealed a memorable 6-4 Europa League aggregate win on Thursday night.
James Tavernier grabbed both goals for Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team in a 2-2 draw at Ibrox, but the Gers had to suffer at times given that Borussia Dortmund had more possession and more shots on goal.
While some players thrived under the pressure, others seemed to struggle, as The Transfer Tavern use statistical experts SofaScore to analyse who the three worst performers (to have played at least 45 minutes) were for the hosts at Ibrox:
Borna Barisic (6.4)
Admittedly joint with second in terms of rating (6.4), Barisic ranks in third here as he only played one half.
The Croatia international failed to record any dribbles, tackles, key passes or crosses, while he was also guilty of losing the ball seven times in the match.
Scott Arfield (6.4)
Arfield was Rangers’ second-worst player on the night with a 6.4 overall rating given.
The central midfielder missed a big chance in the match and also lost out on five of his duels in total, while failing to complete a successful dribble or key pass.
He also lost the ball 11 times before being replaced by Glen Kamara just shy of the 70-minute mark.
Alfredo Morelos (5.9)
With a 5.9 overall rating, Morelos was ranked as the Light Blues’ worst performer against Dortmund.
Will Morelos stay at Rangers next season?
Yes
No
The striker lost a game-high 15 duels and missed two big chances in the match. He also recorded no key passes and gave possession away on no fewer than 20 separate occasions, the second-most out of any of his team-mates.
