Ibrox club Glasgow Rangers goalkeeper Allan McGregor could not save the penalty on Sunday.
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard
The Gers played out a 1-1 draw with Aberdeen away from home in the Scottish Cup quarter-final tie on Sunday afternoon.
The home team took the lead after just 11 minutes when Sam Cosgrove found the target from the penalty spot.
Rangers goalkeeper McGregor did get a hand to the spot kick, and manager Gerrard believes that the 37-year-old Scotland international was unlucky not to have saved it.
Gerrard told Rangers’ official website: “He was very unlucky – he guessed the right way so he was very unfortunate, and he was unlucky not to keep a clean sheet today.”
