Steven Gerrard has raved about Glasgow Rangers goalkeeper Allan McGregor in the Scotsman.

McGregor was in brilliant form for Rangers, as he helped them keep a clean sheet against Villarreal.

The Scottish stopper made save after save, as 10 men Rangers held on to claim a vital point.

And Gerrard had nothing but praise for McGregor after the contest.

He said: “Allan McGregor was world class tonight. Just one word really – wow.

“His form has been incredible since day one. He’s been big for us on two occasions tonight with two world class saves.”

McGregor made two particularly memorable saves to preserve Rangers’ clean sheet, when Villarreal strikers went one-on-one with him.

Rangers’ destiny in the Europa League is now in their own hands heading into the final game.

Rangers need to beat Rapid Wien in their final Europa League group stage game to ensure their progress.

McGregor is likely to start in goal again for Rangers in their next match, which comes against Hearts on Sunday.
