Philippe Clement’s side were in dreamland in the south of France tonight, as the Scottish Premiership team ran out 4-1 winners.
Vaclav Cerny, Mohamed Diomande and Hamza Igamane scored the goals on a stunning night for the Ibrox club.
Rangers started the night on seven points before taking on Ligue 1 side Nice.
And the win has taken the Light Blues up to 10 points in the league phase. They sit eighth in the table.

Scotland’s Coefficient projects that this will be enough to secure Rangers an unseeded spot in the play-off round.
Rangers have three remaining league phase fixtures in the 2024/25 competition, though, so an automatic spot in the last-16 isn’t yet out of the question.
They’ll welcome Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs at Ibrox next time out, before travelling down south to face Manchester United in January and finally taking on Union Saint-Gilloise that month too.
It’s said that 14 to 15 points will be needed to seal a top-eight finish in the league phase, while 11 to 12 points will see Rangers seeded for the play-off.
So, Rangers are just a couple of points off being in a very good position to progress in the tournament beyond the league-phase at this point.
