Author |  William G England v Wales friendly Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has also been called up to the senior squad for the first time.

Rangers 0 - 2 Roma Rangers endured another punishing Europa League night as Roma inflicted a fourth straight defeat in this season’s competition. Author | Mark Lee Stadium | Ibrox Danny Rohl’s team were booed off at half-time, two goals down and fortunate the margin was not greater. Only Jack Butland’s sharp goalkeeping and some wasteful Roma finishing spared further damage. Lorenzo Pellegrini’s exquisite strike ten minutes before the interval effectively settled the contest, the captain guiding home after a flowing Roma move. Earlier, his teasing corner had been glanced on by Matias Soule, the Argentine forward heading into an empty net to give the visitors the lead. At 2-0, memories resurfaced of the heavy Champions League qualifying defeat by Brugge in August. Rangers rarely troubled Mile Svilar, though Djeidi Gassama’s lively runs at least forced some defensive scrambling from the Italians.

Despite that contrast in form, Aberdeen produced a composed and disciplined performance, limiting their hosts to few clear chances and threatening on the break. The home side came closest in the first half when defender Hrvoje Milicevic struck the base of the post from distance before curling another effort narrowly wide moments later. Aberdeen carved out opportunities of their own through Jack Milne, who dragged a shot wide and later headed over, while Jesper Karlsson’s deflected strike also flew just past the post. The secon...

Footage from @footballontnt https://t.co/hSBExlbgy4 — European Super Football (@ESFootballNews) November 6, 2025 Sean Dyche made seven changes from the side that drew with Manchester United on Saturday, and while Forest created plenty of chances, they could not find a breakthrough.

However, his tame spot-kick was comfortably saved by Oliver Christensen, diving low to his left, with Ryan Yates unable to convert the rebound. James McAtee came closest earlier on, steering narrowly wide after a well-worked free-kick routine, while Yates later saw a header cleared off the line by Arjan Malic following a ...
