Sky Sports share video clip of David Moyes instant reaction to being told Rangers won v Braga
West Ham manager David Moyes was delighted for Rangers after he was told they’d beaten Braga in the Europa League quarter-finals on Thursday night.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men will face RB Leipzig in the semi-finals while the Hammers will take on Frankfurt.
An all-British final remains on the cards after the results on Thursday [14 April] and ex-Celtic player Moyes seemed surprised yet thrilled by the prospect of that happening.
Sky Sports Scotland shared a video clip on Twitter showing Moyes’ instant reaction to being told the Gers had won.
After a reporter told him Rangers won 3-2 on aggregate over Braga, Moyes said: “Rangers are through?
“Oh, wow.
“Great for Rangers. Great for Rangers. Fantastic.”
Rangers v West Ham final?
Let’s face it, it’s what we all want.
There’s a good chance it’ll happen too as the Gers have beaten stronger teams than Leipzig in the Europa League this season, conquering Borussia Dortmund earlier in the competition.
West Ham are probably the favourites to win the competition now too with Barcelona getting knocked out of the quarter-finals by Frankfurt.
It would be great to see that in Seville.
Van Bronckhorst has endured a lot of criticism in recent months with Rangers’ bid to win the Scottish Premiership title effectively over.
However, the Dutchman can still win over those fans who are either on the fence about him or opposed to him by winning in the Scottish Cup semi-final on Sunday and then going on and getting to a Europa League final too.
We don’t want to start tempting fate, but it’s hard to not dream about winning both, wouldn’t it?
Rangers have performed brilliantly in Europe for years now so it’s brilliant to see some silverware being dangled in front of our faces.
