The Rangers will be the subject of a documentary on the Amazon Prime streaming service
The Ibrox club has confirmed that Prime Video has secured the exclusive rights to Friday’s digital release of the factual feature Rangers72 – a look at the club’s only European trophy success.
Colin Stein and a Willie Johnston brace beat Dynamo Moscow to Barcelona 50 years ago and City Talking and Giuseppe De Luca’s documentary focuses on the players affectionately known as Barca Bears.
Rangers commercial director James Bisgrove said: “The remarkable achievements of ‘Barca Bears’ in 1972 will forever be remembered as a defining moment in the club’s rich 150-year history.
“This May marked the 50th anniversary of their famous victory and it felt fitting to reach the 2022 UEFA Europa League final, with Rangers fans following the club in record numbers across Europe as they of this brilliant journey back to Spain.
