Although Rangers were unfortunate to only get a draw for their efforts before departing Portugal, Cole McKinnon wouldn’t have been

very dissatisfied.

Due to his recent impressive performances, the Gers academy product was selected for the squad to go to Benfica. With any luck, he

will be included for the return leg at Ibrox.

Cole McKinnon is showing that money can be saved by moving on from a big earner who has done little. At this time last season, the

Rangers had him out on loan.

I’ve long held the belief that players coming through the academy shouldn’t see Barry Ferguson or Allan McGregor as the standard

they have to match. These guys are hall of fame legends, there is a reason why it is so rare for players to come through the youth set up

and become international regulars and worth millions of pounds. If players from Rangers that come through Auchenhowie can

supplement the first-team squad and contribute then they are doing their job, just like Cole McKinnon did in Portugal. The 21-year old

got a key block in on Angel di Maria as the Argentina legend fired a shot that was heading towards the bottom corner.Speaking after

the game, McKinnon was clearly buzzing: “I tried to get up and down the pitch and I did that well. It shows the belief the manager has

in the young boys and I am hoping for more appearances. “I wasn’t happy with a few of my touches, but I am happy we managed to get

the draw. “It is gutting not to win in the end, but it is good to take the draw back to Ibrox as everyone knows what it is like on a

European night.
