Rangers exited the Europa Cup after last season’s finalists Hammarby left Broadwood Stadium with a three-goal victory on the night to progress 5-0 on aggregate.<\/p>\n
It took only 13 minutes for the side sitting second in the 2026 Swedish top flight to add to their first-leg lead.<\/p>\n
Defender Mathilde Janzen found Anna Walter with a fine through ball and the midfielder slotted it wide of exposed goalkeeper Jenna Fife.<\/p>\n
Rangers’ first threat came after 21 minutes, with striker Laura Berry firing straight at goalkeeper Cajsa Andersson.<\/p>\n
However, Hammarby should have extended their lead before the break, with Iceland striker Ida Hermannsdottir and midfielder Elin Sorum squandering chances from close range.<\/p>\n
For all the Scottish Women’s Premier League leaders’ possession, it took until the 58th minute to threaten again, with Berry firing straight at Andersson.<\/p>\n
Two minutes later, the tie was over as Hermannsdottir strode gracefully into the path of a superb through ball before another clinical finish for last season’s Swedish league runners-up.<\/p>\n
An emphatic victory was secured as 16-year-old midfielder Fanny Peterson added to her first-leg goal as she pounced after Svea Rehnberg’s close-range effort was parried by Fife.<\/p>\n
That ended Scotland’s hopes in the Europe’s second-tier competition after champions Heart of Midlothian’s defeat earlier in the evening by Real Sociedad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rangers exited the Europa Cup after last season’s finalists Hammarby left Broadwood Stadium with a three-goal victory on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":788023,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[59,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-788022","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-gb","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/788022","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=788022"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/788022\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/788023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=788022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=788022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=788022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
