Rangers fans watch on as Eintracht Frankfurt throw open stadium with VIP Europa League Final beamback

Supporters of Europa League finalists Eintracht Frankfurt will be treated to a beamback with a difference against Rangers.

But followers of the Ibrox side are set to be left wanting when it comes to their club throwing the doors open to show the action from Seville.

Eintracht Frankfurt fans are in line for a ticket scramble as the Bundesliga club will broadcast the blockbuster showdown on their showpiece 400m LED screen - the feature which sets off the Deutsche Bank Park.

But the action doesn't stop there, they will host live acts, as presenters Julia Nestle and Daniel Fischer are set to provide an immersive experience for those not travelling to Seville.

Frankfurt's red carpet reveal comes hours after Rangers managing director Stewart Robertson conceded a beamback from Ibrox almost certainly wouldn't happen.

He said: "It's very unlikely as most of the staff we'd need to run such a beamback are going to be in Seville so I don't think that will happen.

"As much as we understand the desire of fans to be in one place together to watch it, I don't think that's going to be physically possible."

Supporters were hopeful Ibrox would be available to supporters not travelling to Seville with many voicing their concerns over a lack of updates.

Rangers announced on Thursday that they will provide a full update on their plans for supporters on Friday.
