The Scottish giants, Celtic’s archrivals, boast the worst record of any side to enter the Champions League group stage following the Tuesday night 3-1 defeat to Ajax.Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side landed a nightmare group, and the loss at the hands of the Dutch champions made it six defeats in a row, as Napoli, Liverpool, and Ajax swept aside last season’s Europa League finalists. Rangers finish the group with 0 points and a -21 goal difference, setting the record for the worst group stage in Champions League history 😳 pic.twitter.com/Yyb7hnHSLe— ESPN UK (@ESPNUK) November 1, 2022 The Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb finished their dreadful 2011-12 campaign with no points, three goals scored, and 22 conceded for a goal difference of -19. The defeat at Ibrox leaves, however, Glasgow Rangers with a record of scoring only two and conceding 22. This means a goal difference of -20 on their return to the Champions League group stage after a 12-year absence.”They had six days off, their league is thinking about their players!””They haven’t had a game at the weekend, I’m not saying we need help, but I’m saying they had a free weekend.”Giovanni van Bronckhorst on defeat at Ibrox to Ajax. pic.twitter.com/q6evjNHrrG— Football on BT Sport (@btsportfootball) November 1, 2022 It’s not the first time Rangers have failed to win a single Champions League group stage game. The 2009-10 campaign included successive defeats at the hands of Sevilla, a defeat and a draw against Stuttgart before a disappointing 4-1 home defeat to Romanian minnows FC Urziceni, who also secured a draw against the Gers.CHAMPIONS LEAGUEGroup stage – Round 6TuesdayLeverkusen – Club Brugge 0-0Porto – Atletico 2-1 (2-0)/Taremi 5, Eustaqio 24 – Marcano 90+5/Bayern – Inter 2-0 (1-0)/Pavard 32, Choupo-Moting 72//Liverpool – Napoli 2-0 (0-0)/Salah 85, Nunez 90+8/Olympique de Marseille – Tottenham 1-2 (1-0)/Mbemba 45+2 – Lenglet 54, Hojbjerg 90+5/Plzen – Barcelona 2-4 (0-2)/Chory 50 pen, 63 – Alonso 6, Torres 45, 54, Torre 75/Rangers – Ajax 1-3 (0-2)/Tavernier 86 pen – Berghuis 4, Kudus 29, 56, Conceicao 89/Sporting CP – Eintracht Frankfurt 1-2 (1-0)/Gomes 39 – Kamada 62 pen, Kolo Muani 72/Wednesday20:45: (1.27) Real Madrid (7.00) Celtic (10.5)20:45: (5.50) Shakhtar (3.90) RB Leipzig (1.73)23:00: (1.58) Milan (4.30) Salzburg (6.75)23:00: (1.38) Chelsea (5.50) Dinamo Zagreb (9.50)23:00: (4.90) Copenhagen (3.60) Dortmund (1.79)23:00: (1.28) Man.City (7.00) Sevilla (12.0)23:00: (5.10) Juventus (3.70) PSG (1.73)23:00: (5.20) Maccabi Haifa (3.80) Benfica (1.79)***odds are subject to change**
