Rangers, who are joint-toppers in the Scottish Premier League alongside Celtic, have progressed immensely under Steven Gerrard, and everyone associated with the club should be proud of this performance.
The victory means Rangers now sit joint top of Group G alongside Young Boys of Switzerland with two games remaining, while Porto and Feyenoord are three points behind.
Morelos has been phenomenal for the Gers this season. The Colombian international has now scored 11 goals in Europe this season, and 21 overall in all competitions.
