Rangers beat Malmö with goals from Bajrami and McCausland in each half
Rangers made a storming start to their Europa League campaign with a 2-0 win over Malmö in Sweden that should have been even more emphatic. Nedim Bajrami scored his first goal for the Ibrox club in less than a minute and Philippe Clement’s side passed up several chances to add a second before the interval.
The Swedish champions, who had not lost to Rangers in four previous meetings in Champions League qualifiers, piled pressure on after the break but still Rangers missed chances to add to their lead before the substitute Ross McCausland fired in a superb second in the 76th minute to seal the win. It was the biggest test for Rangers since they lost 3-0 to Celtic at the start of the month, and they came through with flying colours.
