Rangers’ Vaclav Cerny, a frequent key player for the team this season, opened the scoring with a deflected shot that deceived goalkeeper Marcin Bulka. Mohamed Diomande then added a second goal with an audacious flick just three minutes later. The Ivory Coast international (Diomande) exploited significant defensive lapses from the heavily altered Nice squad. A subsequent error by Nice further contributed to Rangers’ third goal before halftime. Hamza Igamane, who had previously missed an opportunity, scored by seizing upon a poor blind back-pass, igniting considerable excitement among the visiting supporters. Overall, the match proved to be exceptionally favorable for Rangers. Nice’s defensive struggles persisted into the second half, culminating in Igamane intercepting a weak pass from Issiaga Camara, subsequently dribbling the ball through the defender’s legs, and calmly scoring a superb fourth goal. Despite an otherwise challenging evening for the home team, Bouanani managed to score a stylish free-kick late in the match, serving as a minor consolation.
