Rangers' goalkeeper Jack Butland expressed immense pride in his team's performance after they triumphed over Fenerbahce in a tense penalty shootout, securing their spot in the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals. Despite losing the second leg 2-0 at Ibrox, the Scottish side advanced with a 3-3 aggregate score, clinching the victory through penalties after a gripping match that saw Fenerbahce equalize.

Butland played a crucial role in the shootout, saving penalties from Dusan Tadic and Fred, while Mert Hakan Yandas missed his attempt, allowing Rangers to seal their place in the next round. Reflecting on the match, Butland praised his teammates, declaring, "We are something special," highlighting the determination and belief that propelled the squad to success. He emphasized that the victory was not just about the result, but about delivering for the fans and the team.

This win marks a significant achievement for Rangers, who have now reached the Europa League quarter-finals for the third time. The team will face Athletic Bilbao in their next challenge. Captain James Tavernier acknowledged the emotional weight of the victory, noting that such moments in European football are irreplaceable. Remarkably, the team had not practiced penalties leading up to the match, which Tavernier humorously suggested might have contributed to their success. As Rangers look forward to their next match, the confidence gained from this victory could be pivotal in their pursuit of European glory.
