Anticipation for Electrifying Atmospheres
Rangers star Nicolas Raskin has expressed his excitement at the prospect of experiencing the vibrant atmospheres at both Ibrox and the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium as the Gers prepare to face Turkish giants Fenerbahce in the Europa League.
The Europa League draw has pitted Rangers against Fenerbahce, known for their passionate and raucous fanbase that creates an electrifying environment inside their stadium, making it one of the toughest grounds to visit in European football.
Raskin, who has never played in Turkey before, is eager to soak in the atmosphere at the Sukru Saracoglu and is equally keen to experience the “magic” of the Ibrox crowd, which is known to make a significant difference on famous European nights.
A Clash of Passionate Fanbases
Fenerbahce’s supporters are renowned for their unwavering support and the ability to forge an intimidating atmosphere for visiting teams. On the other hand, Rangers also boast a passionate fanbase that can rally behind their players and influence the outcome of the matches, especially in crucial European encounters.
Raskin, who has been closely following Fenerbahce’s recent Europa League campaign, was impressed by the Turkish side’s performance in the playoff round against Anderlecht. He is relishing the opportunity to experience the clash of these two passionate fanbases and the electric atmosphere it will create.
“Fenerbahce will be a very exciting game, I watched both legs of the last round, and it will be a good game,” Raskin said in a press conference. “They have a good atmosphere, ours is magic, so it will be a nice game to play.”
Rangers’ Europa League campaign in the 2021-22 season saw them reach the final, where they ultimately fell short. The club and its supporters are eager to have another successful run in the competition, and this upcoming clash with Fenerbahce presents an opportunity for redemption.
The match-up also carries significant importance for the managers of both teams. Rangers’ Philippe Clement has faced criticism for his team’s performances this season and will be looking to guide the Gers to a positive result, while Fenerbahce’s Jose Mourinho, an experienced trophy-winning manager, will be aiming to lead his side to victory.
