Barry Ferguson responds after 'objects thrown' during Fenerbahce vs Rangers

Barry Ferguson has responded after objects were thrown from the stands in the Europa League match between Fenerbahce and Rangers.

The Ibrox interim manager appeared to be in discussions with the fourth official over an incident in the first half of the Europa League last 16 tie.

Ferguson has now responded to objects being thrown as he brushed off the incident as "people getting a bit frustrated".

The former Rangers captain didn't dwell on the matter in his post-match press conference as he addressed the matter before moving on.

Asked about objects thrown at or near him, Ferguson said: "In terms of things getting thrown, it’s people getting a bit frustrated but I have no issue with that."

On the result, Ferguson added: "I thought it was a really good performance from my team. They gave me everything that I asked for from the start of the week.

"We went a different way from what we're used to playing. They took a lot of information in.

"One thing I've got to give them is credit because they took every single thing that me and my coaching staff went over on the training ground.

"I thought tonight, at times, going forward, they looked a real threat. I thought defensively, the guys put their bodies on the line. Overall, it was a brilliant result."
