“He had some good interventions. We left him in the mess several times, we didn’t help him and we gave them a chance. In any case, he is a good goalkeeper and has a bright future ahead of him. He did well. ”

The Rangers turned in the first period from 0: 1 to 2: 1, the second goal of the “riders” was scored by the Swedish defender Nils Lundkvist and he recorded his first accurate hit in the profile.
