Glasgow Rangers 3:2 FC Porto

With our domestic league form pointing towards mid-table mediocrity at best and a relegation dog-fight at worst it was important that we won our first European home game. If we're to progress to the knockout stages we must beat Artmedia home and away, beat FC Porto at home and get a result away and try for at least a point against Inter at home.

The defence were woeful last night, Prso immense and Bazza "Fud" Ferguson had a great game in the midfield.

I know that all SKY's Premiership coverage is now all shot in HD and the difference is clearly visible in a much improved picture even on a normal telly. Not sure which station's camera's covered the match from Ibrox (it was on both Sky and Grampian) but the picture quality was definitely a step up from previous years. In contrast the Liverpool match on ITV2, covered by Spanish TV, was terrible. Archaic 4:3 ratio, hugely compressed with the ball represented by what at times looked like a single square pixel. I hope German TV, who will cover the World Cup, invest heavily in some decent broadcast equipment before next summer.
