Rangers suffered penalty shootout heartache in Seville as Eintracht Frankfurt came from behind to dramatically win the Europa League final.

Makeshift centre-forward Joe Aribo put the Rangers fans in dreamland when he slotted home following a slip in the German side’s defence in the 57th minute.

Frankfurt levelled 12 minutes later when Rafael Borre knocked the ball home from close range following a low cross.

Gers finished extra-time strongly and Ryan Kent was brilliantly denied at close range before Steven Davis had a shot cleared off the line, while James Tavernier had a free-kick saved in stoppage-time of the 1-1 draw.

Aaron Ramsey, a 117th-minute substitute, saw his spot-kick saved and Borre netted to seal a 5-4 shootout win.

GOAL! Eintracht Frankfurt 1-1 Rangers (Borre, 69)

69 mins: All square!

Frankfurt have finally found a way through. Kostic whips a delicious low cross to the edge of the six-yard box and Borre gets in between the two Rangers centre-backs to poke beyond McGregor.

As you were.

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

67 mins: CHANCE! So close to an equaliser! Goldston plays a pass terribly short and Rode flicks a ball into Kamada who is one-on-one which McGregor but his lob over McGregor lands on the top of the net!

Rangers let off the hook in a big way. Kamada cannot believe he has missed!

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

66 mins: Aribo goes down under pressure from Hasebe but there was very little in that and the referee tells him to get back to his feet.

Knauff tries to get something going down the right side but Bassey does absolutely sensationally to stand up, show his strength and recover the ball for Rangers.

Here is the moment.

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

64 mins: Toure has taken a long time to recover from that little collision with Aribo. It’s a good opportunity for Rangers to reset and assess how they are going to take the sting out of the game with a little over 25 minutes remaining.

Frankfurt chasing the game now. Can they conjure up something?

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

62 mins: YELLOW! Aribo goes up for a challenge with Toure and the free-kick goes the way of the Frankfurt defender. Aribo is booked for the coming together as well. Very harsh.

Not sure the Rangers fans even realised though. They are bouncing, singing, loving every moment.

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

60 mins: SUB! In amongst all that, Tuta injured himself during his slip that led to the Rangers goal and was forced to come off. He has been replaced by Makoto Hasebe.

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers

59 mins: IT’S ALL HAPPENING HERE!

Frankfurt are almost level instantly as Kamada knocks the ball back for Lindstrom and his effort is crucially blocked by Bassey. The Frankfurt players scream for a handball but it clearly hit his chest.

Great chance goes begging. Suddenly this game has come to life.

GOAL! Eintracht Frankfurt 0-1 Rangers (Aribo, 57)

57 mins: LIFT OFF FOR RANGERS!!!!

It’s ecstasy for those travelling Scottish fans as Rangers take the lead!

It’s a nightmare for Frankfurt centre-back Tuta as he slips and hits the floor when a long ball is played over the top. The slip leaves Aribo in on goal and he makes no mistake with a calm left-footed finish into the bottom corner.

WOW!

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-0 Rangers

55 mins: CHANCE! Oh it’s Rangers’ best opportunity of the match!

Tavernier does superbly to knock it beyond Kostic and speed into the Frankfurt half. He sends a low ball across for Kamara who dummies it to Aribo. Aribo lays it off to Kent who only has Trapp to beat but he slices it wide!

Kent is furious with himself. That was a great chance.
