Rangers Miller dedicates CL goal to his late gran

Kenny Miller dedicated his Champions League goal against Bursaspor in Turkey to his late grandmother Flora, who died on Sunday. The Rangers forward pointed to the sky when he scored his 19th goal of the season for the Light Blues to give the Scottish champions the lead against the Turkish club in their final Group C game.

The home side levelled after the break but Miller said: "My gran Flora passed away on Sunday morning shortly before we left for Turkey - so it felt quite nice to score a goal.

"That one was for her and that's why I pointed to the sky after scoring."

It was Miller's 20th goal of the season in total but the first in the Champions League for Rangers in a decade - since his first spell at Ibrox.
