Steven Gerrard has reacted on Twitter to Rangers’ heroics tonight.

The Scottish Premiership outfit have beaten Red Bull Leipzig 3-2 on aggregate to reach the final of the Europa League, which takes place in Seville on May 18.

John Lundstram scored an 80th-minute winner for Rangers to see them through.

Gerrard quit the Gers during the first half of the campaign to become Aston Villa manager, but regularly posts about his former club on social media.

And here’s how the Villa boss reacted to Rangers’ victory tonight, writing ‘what a performance’.

The light Blues will be taking on Eintracht Frankfurt in the showpiece in two weeks.

The Bundesliga outfit defeated West Ham United 3-1 on aggregate to advance into this stage of Europe’s secondary competition.

It’s been a poor domestic season for Rangers, who have all but surrendered their Scottish Premiership title to Celtic, who also won the League Cup earlier in the season.

But Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side are also in the Scottish Cup and winning that and the European competition would still mark a sensational campaign for everybody associated with the Ibrox club.
