Calum Ferrie the hero as Queen’s Park shock Rangers with win at Ibrox
Second-tier Queen’s Park produced one of the biggest shocks in Scottish Cup history to eliminate Rangers in the pair’s last-16 tie at Ibrox. The result, which is likely to have severe implications for the Rangers manager, Philippe Clement, marks the first time since 1966-67 the club has been knocked out of the Scottish Cup by lower-league opposition. Calum Ferrie, the heroic Queen’s goalkeeper, saved a stoppage-time James Tavernier penalty on an afternoon of high drama.
Queen’s Park last defeated Rangers in a Scottish Cup tie in 1882, at that point the second round of the “Glasgow and Suburbs” section. Scotland’s oldest league club will take a place in the quarter-final draw for the first time since 1983. Their match-winner in 2025 was Seb Drozd, who danced inside Jefté after Rangers failed to clear a 69th-minute corner, the substitute then slotting calmly beyond Liam Kelly.
