Rangers fans are on the move in Manchester, with police keeping a close watch ahead of tonight’s big match against Manchester United at Old Trafford
The match kicks off at 8 PM tonight, and it’s a big deal. Rangers are facing Manchester United in the Europa League.
The club got 3,500 tickets, but many more fans made the trip. They were undeterred by a red weather warning.
Videos showed fans singing and lighting flares as they marched. The atmosphere was electric, with smoke filling the air.
Rangers had asked fans to behave, hoping for a peaceful event. Police escorted the fans to the stadium, keeping an eye on things.
Back in 2008, over 100,000 Rangers fans came to Manchester for the UEFA Cup final. That event had its share of trouble, with police working hard to restore order.
Greater Manchester Police warned that the city would be busy before the match. They advised fans to plan their travel carefully, especially between 5 PM and 7:30 PM.
It’s shaping up to be an exciting night in Manchester, and everyone is hoping for a great game!
