Rangers Secure Europa League Opener with Goals from Nedim Bajrami and Ross McCausland against Malmo

The Rangers got off to an impressive start in their Europa League campaign with a dominant 2-0 victory over Malmo in Sweden, though they could have easily scored more goals.

Midfielder Nedim Bajrami scored his first goal for the Ibrox club in less than a minute and Philippe Clement's side passed up several chances to add a second before the interval.

The Swedish champions, who had not lost to Rangers in four previous meetings in Champions League qualifiers, piled pressure on after the break but still the Scottish side missed chances to add to their lead before substitute Ross McCausland fired in a superb second in the 76th minute to seal the win.

It was the biggest test for the Ibrox outfit since they lost 3-0 to Celtic at the start of the month and they came through with flying colours.

Clement's side can take confidence into the William Hill Premiership game against Hibernian on Sunday, live on , before they host French side Lyon next week in the second of eight Europa League fixtures.
