Rangers defender Leon Balogun has urged his teammates to give everything as they continue their Europa League battle against Athletic Bilbao.
Rangers secured a goalless draw despite being reduced to 10 men, leaving the tie open ahead of the next meeting. Softfootball reports that Balogun believes Rangers must show determination if they are to secure progression.
The Nigerian international was involved in the demanding encounter and understands the challenge posed by Bilbao. Rangers will need to improve their attacking threat while maintaining the defensive organisation that helped them survive the first leg.
Balogun has called for a collective effort from the squad as the Scottish club attempt to take advantage of their opportunities. Playing in front of their supporters could provide Rangers with additional motivation.
The defender’s experience will also be important as the team prepares for another high-pressure European match. Rangers know that victory would take them closer to a place in the next round.
