Group C Bursaspor 1 Rangers 1:KENNY MILLER scored his 19th goal of the season, but Rangers could only conclude their Champions League campaign with a draw in the Bursa Ataturk stadium last night.
The Ibrox striker broke the deadlock in the 19th minute when he lashed a left-footed shot from 12 yards past Yavuz Ozkan after good work from Steven Naismith and Steven Whittaker down the left-hand side.
However, the Scottish side were forced to defend for most of the second half and in the 79th minute Sercan Yildirim stabbed the ball past Allan McGregor to give the Turkish club their first Champions League point although they finished bottom of Group C.
Rangers went into the match with no chance of qualifying for the last 16 of the competition, but with a place in the Europa League already secured.
