“Scotty Arfield was telling Cedric Itten, if that was a full house it would have been the best atmosphere he would have experienced.

“These are the nights you want to be playing in front of 50,000 people but I’m sure the fans were all screaming at their TVs and were happy that we got through. It’s all for them and

I ’m delighted they could enjoy the moment.”

Rangers have hit the heights in Europe but Tavernier knows the trick is now to cut out the slip ups on the home front to maintain the title challenge all the way to the line.

He said: “We’ve shown great signs at the start of the season. We had a great pre-season when we wouldn’t normally have that much time together. We’ve shown since the start of the season we are strong as a unit and we’ve added great players in to the squad.

“It’s all mixed well and everyone has gelled. We are still improving and we know we can get better. That’s the task.

“You saw the great performance the other night and we need to do that domestically and take it in to the game against Ross County.”
