Simon Jordan: Braga may be ‘Kryptonite’ to Rangers in Europa League this week
Simon Jordan has insisted that Braga may have the “kryptonite” to stop Rangers in the Europa League this week.
Carlos Carvahal told Jim White that his squad fears no one from Ibrox ahead of the major quarter-final showdown.
Jordan hit back at that and admitted that Carvahal knows nothing about how his squad will react, with the Bears wanting this draw before it happened.
Speaking live on talkSPORT’s White and Jordan [05 April, 11:25 am], the co-host was reacting to a Carvahal interview.
“What he doesn’t know is how his team are going to react against Rangers,” he said.
“The X-factor, we’ll see if they [Braga] have got the antidote, if they are the kryptonite to Rangers because Rangers would have wanted this draw.”
Here we go.
We need to let the disappointment of defeat against Celtic slide very quickly, with this trip to Portugal meaning everything.
Going as far as we can in Europe will take priority soon, and the potential of winning the competition will grow with each win.
After beating Borussia Dortmund, anything is possible but we can’t get ahead of ourselves yet.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst will be desperate to pick up a win here, especially after that latest defeat.
Braga are in good form though, and if the Bears thought it would be easy, they still have to go out and prove that.
We have no doubt the squad will turn it on here, and bringing a positive result back to Ibrox for next week will be the priority.
