A decade ago, Rangers were liquidated as a club and restarted in the fourth tier of Scottish football.
Now they join city rival Celtic, who earned direct entry as the Scottish league winner, in the lucrative Champions League that is worth tens of millions of euros to each.
FC Copenhagen also made into the group stage after a 0-0 draw at Turkey’s Trabzonspor secured a 2-1 aggregate win.
Dinamo Zagreb beat Norway’s Bodo/Glimt in extra time 4-1, with the tie finishing 4-2 on aggregate.
