The two sides had drawn the first leg 2-2 at Ibrox Stadium.

But the Scottish giants were embarrassed at the Philips Stadium in Eindhoven, Netherlands as PSV ran riot.

Two goals from Ismael Saibari gave Michael Beale's side an uphill struggle.

Captain James Tavernier gave the Gers hope of a comeback as he halved the deficit after ghosting in at the back post for a tap in in the 65th minute.

However, this hope was short-lived as Luuk de Jong scored a header moments later.

Joey Veerman then got himself on the scoresheet, before the night was summed up by Connor Goldson's shocking own-goal.

After being played a short pass by Butland, Goldson inexplicably zipped a pass back towards the net to the opposite side to where Butland was standing.

It left the former England international scrambling back to his goal to try and spare Goldson's blushes.

But he was not quick enough as Rangers conceded a fifth to send them crashing out of the Champions League.

Butland, 30, joined Man Utd on loan from Crystal Palace for the second half of last season, but failed to make an appearance.

He then joined Rangers in a free transfer this summer.

PSV's 7-3 aggregate win means they are in Pot 3 for this evenings group stage draw.

The draw is set to begin at 5pm UK time and will take place in Monaco.

Four English teams - Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle - are in the draw, along with Scottish Champions Celtic.

SunSport simulated the draw, with United and Arsenal handed horror match ups in our simulation.

Meanwhile, Rangers will join Liverpool, Brighton and West Ham in the Europa League group stage draw on September 1.
