UFA, 30 August 2018. /Bashinform News Agency, Natalia Ovcharuk/ translated by Tatiana Aksyutina/. Yesterday evening, a plane with players, staff and coaching staff of the Glasgow Rangers club landed at the Ufa airport. There they were met by personal fans of the coach of the Scottish team, the legend of Liverpool and England national team Steven Gerrard. The specialist went straight to the hotel, where a pre-match press conference was held.

Gerrard said that the return game with FC Ufa in the capital of Bashkortostan is a clean sheet.

"We prepared for this match and we are self-confident. I think that we will succeed", said Stephen Gerrard. "I'm confident in my players, despite the fact that they will play relaxed".

The Rangers coach noted that he could not single out any player from the Bashkir team. However, he still knew the weak points of the opponent.

Gerrard also denied the fact that it would be problematic for his players to play at the Neftyanik stadium due to its artificial cover.

After the press conference, the personal fans of Steven Gerrard managed to take autographs from the legend of the English football, waiting for him with posters, T-shirts and other attributes of the Liverpool team.

The match between FC Ufa and Glasgow Rangers will be held today, August 30. The beginning is at 7 p.m. local time.
