WARSAW, Poland. Aug 22 (PSN) – Legia Warsaw took part in the first leg of the fourth round of UEFA Europa League qualifiers on Thursday.
The Legion, who many saw as underdogs in the fixture, found themselves drawing 0:0 at home against Scottish outfit Rangers FC. Both sides played a well balanced game, sharing equal opportunity goal chances but neither team could find the back of the net. Legia did start standing out much more come the second half, consistently pressuring Steven Gerrard’s men in their own half. However, the Poles still failed to put the Rangers goal in any real danger. The second leg will be played on August 29 in Glasgow. For Alexander Vukovic and Legia, this is now the seventh match in a row in Europe without conceding a goal.
