PSV Eindhoven have a home tie next Wednesday to book their place in the group stage of the Champions League after drawing 2-2 at Ibrox tonight.Â
Connor Goldson was the home fall-guy- flapping at a corner for the first PSV goal then ducking away from a corner as Armando Obispo powered home a header in the 78th minute to level the scores at 2-2.Â
As is usual on European nights at Ibrox the home side carried a massive slice of luck with the PSV keeper virtually chucking in a free kick in the 70th minute to put the home side in front.Â
Look away, 'keepers! ?
Tom Lawrence benefits from a huge mistake from Walter BenÃtez!

Fortunately PSV recovered from that blow, stuck to their football to pick up a well deserved draw to go into the return leg as favourites to join Celtic in the group stage draw.Â
If it wasn’t for that howler from Walter Benitez PSV would have joined Slavia Prague, Malmo and Lyon to have stormed Fortress Ibrox in the last 18 months.Â
PSV will enjoy a free weekend before the return leg next Wednesday while Giovanni van Bronckhorst takes his squad to face Hibs on Saturday. Â
It's advantage PSV at Ibrox! ?

did not think both teams not up to much to be honest Celtic would run them both ragged PSV should win at home but anything could happen their keeper not the best.
I know you’re referencing the EURO games, but remember We went there also and were victorious last season. Fortress Ipox only exists in the minds of the deluded. PSV don’t read the Daily Record. Rogic and CCV, Sevco 1-2Celtic. Sevco dodgy goal from free kick. PSV should have enough to see it through.
Agree Peter, based on what I watched then Sevco are there for the taking. PSV should see it through next week.
