Rangers have banked a winning bonus from their first Europa League tie of the season.

And in doing so, they earned a win bonus for the club with money up for grabs throughout the league phase for wins and draws.
The victory in Sweden has earned Rangers €450k (£375k) from UEFA. A draw in the Europa League comes with a €150k (£125k) bonus.
