Smith stunned by late equaliser

Smith's men were two minutes away from three Champions League points

Walter Smith was left to rue a late lapse of concentration as Rangers were denied victory by Unirea Urziceni's 88th-minute equaliser in Bucharest.

Marius Onofras blasted home two minutes from time after Lee McCulloch had opened the scoring for the visitors.

"We had to run the clock down and run the ball into corners. That would have been the thing to do, but we didn't do it and it cost us dearly," said Smith.

Rangers are bottom of Champions League Group G with two games remaining.

The Scottish Premier League side lie a point behind Stuttgart and three behind the Romanian champions, with Sevilla having already qualified for the last 16.

"I felt we played very well tonight," said Smith. "After getting in the lead in the manner in which we did, to give it up so late in the game was a really disappointing factor for us.

"It meant that, after getting ourselves back into the section in terms of qualification, we have made it even more difficult for ourselves by giving away a goal in the last few minutes."

Kenny Miller had a glorious chance to score after an hour of play but failed to make the most of the ball from Steven Davis.

Efforts by Kevin Thomson and Kyle Lafferty came either side of fierce shots by Sorin Frunza and Vasile Maftei in an open and exciting match.

"It was a good game," added Smith, who must lift his players for the two remaining games.

Rangers must beat Stuttgart at Ibrox, then gain at least a point at Sevilla to have any chance of qualifying by finishing second in the group.

"The pressure is on us to win our games," said Smith. "I don't think there is any other way forward for us and that's what makes it so disappointing to lose such a late goal.

"At least we acquitted ourselves in a better manner than the first game, which was as poor a performance as we've had in Europe since I came back."

Smith was full of praise for 17-year-old centre-half Danny Wilson, who showed plenty of promise after coming in for the injured Madjid Bougherra to partner David Weir.

"We were pleased the way Danny has handled the situation since coming into the team," he said.

"That's his third game now, and for a boy of 17 it speaks volumes for him that he has managed to handle it so well."
