Steven Gerrard’s side successfully negotiated a high-scoring affair with Royal ANtwerp while the Czech Republic’s league leaders saw off Leicester City in the previous round.

Both will meet next month for a place in the quarter finals and Rangers fans are, on the whole, satisfied with the draw which avoided big guns like Arsenal, AC Milan, Ajax and Manchester United.

Steven Gerrard tells his players to reach for the stars in last 16 of Europa League

Brian Taylor: “That’ll do for me. Every game will be hard at this level now but I was hoping for Tottenham myself as our special one Stevie G would go head to head and see off the so called Special One.”

Ricky Baillie: “Was hoping for a glamour tie against United, but this will do! Got a great chance of winning this.”

@CF3Loyal: "I’m happy with that, will be a tough game after Slavia Prague knocked out Leicester in the last round but definitely qualifiable. Man Utd v AC Milan is a tasty draw, opens up a pathway for us to go further with at least one of the so-called big teams going out.”

@BigPringle: “A draw which both clubs are probably happy with, and I'm personally pleased to avoid the English teams. Stevie G will no doubt get the lowdown on them from Rodgers which can only help.”

@Euas04: “Not going to be easy but very much doable.”

Stuart Smith: “Fantastic draw, although wouldn’t fear anyone at this stage.”

@BWFCLoneStar: “It’s not one of the top teams, but they’re going to be dangerous after beating Leicester. So close to Granada or Molde which would have been the easiest possible.”

@DecCairns72: “Prague vs Glasgow? I swear I’ve seen this before...”

James Brown: “Watched them against Leicester good team but they’ll need to play like they did last night...”

@detarnlix: “Got to remain humble, there is no guarantee wins, and this team just put out a very good Leicster team, so they are now slouches. Should be a good tie.”

And Czech based Jan Cekal said: “Comparable teams, top of their divisions by a large margin, young progressive managers, it will be a great match!”
