Six Rangers first-team players missed the pre-season draw against Standard Liege.

Philippe Clement's team drew 0-0 with the Belgian side in a bounce game in the Netherlands on Wednesday.

There were first minutes for Connor Barron, Clinton Nsiala and Jefte after making summer transfer moves to Rangers. 

Oscar Cortes also featured for the first time after completing a return to Rangers with an obligation to make his move permanent in 2025.

However, Clement was without five first-team players for the fixture - despite making the most of the closed-door match by making a raft of changes throughout.
