Hammarby end Rangers' Europa Cup run with 5-0 aggregate win

Rangers' Europa Cup campaign ended at Broadwood Stadium, where Hammarby completed a 5-0 aggregate win with a 3-0 victory on the night.

Defender Mathilde Janzen set up Anna Walter after just 13 minutes, the midfielder slotting the ball wide of an exposed Jenna Fife to add to Hammarby's first-leg lead. The side sitting second in the 2026 Swedish top flight should have made the tie safe before half-time, with Iceland striker Ida Hermannsdottir and midfielder Elin Sorum both squandering chances from close range.

Rangers had chances of their own. Laura Berry fired straight at goalkeeper Cajsa Andersson after 21 minutes and again on 58 minutes, unable to find a way past her despite the Scottish Women's Premier League leaders holding most of the possession.

Hermannsdottir made no mistake two minutes later, striding onto a superb through ball for a clinical finish that put last season's Swedish league runners-up out of sight. Fanny Peterson, 16, added a fourth on the night after Svea Rehnberg's close-range effort was parried by Fife, the midfielder pouncing to add to her first-leg goal.

Scotland's involvement in Europe's second-tier women's competition was over for the night. Champions Heart of Midlothian had already gone out earlier in the evening, beaten by Real Sociedad.

The margin leaves Rangers to refocus on domestic business, where they lead the Scottish Women's Premier League, while Hammarby carry the confidence of last season's run to the final into the next round.
