Rangers' Champions League hopes were left hanging in the balance when a late equaliser earned Unirea Urziceni a 1-1 draw and denied the Scottish champions a crucial first victory in the tournament this season.

A 4-1 defeat to the Romanian champions at Ibrox a fortnight ago meant Rangers headed into Wednesday's clash in Bucharest knowing defeat would spell the end of their hopes of progressing to the last 16.

Lee McCulloch thought he had secured the win with a superb strike with just 11 minutes to go but Unirea hit back to claim a point when substitute Marius Onofras grabbed a last-gasp leveller.
