Some of those on show still looked in decent shape. Defoe and Van Persie, for example, were sharp and bright and both took their goals with the quality that they were famed for during their careers. The message Rangers must send to Celtic as derby dominator pinpoints the key detail needed to reignite title race

Rangers then opened the scoring just short of the quarter of an hour mark. Alan Hutton played a delightful cross into the path of Jermain Defoe and, in typical fashion, he was ice cold in front of goal as he took the ball out of the air with his left foot before chipping the ball over David James from close range to put the Gers ahead. As part of the weekend’s activities, we also look forward to supporting the Rangers Charity Foundation and the 150th Anniversary Appeal. Jermaine Defoe put in a man of the match performance but it wasn't enough for the Rangers Legends to see off a World XI. WORLD LEGENDS: James, Huth, Stam, Dawson, Chimbonda, Essien, Petit, Downing, Wilshere, Van Persie, YakubuJermaine Defoe in particular has lost none of his striker’s instinct, albeit he’s only recently retired, as he scored a double and Kris Boyd was also on the scoresheet for a team of Rangers Legends. One day with Smith was enough to convince future Rangers legend Paul Gascoigne to move to Ibrox from Lazio.

As part of the match, Rangers will proudly make a donation to the Luís Figo Foundation, which was established in 2003 to support education, health and sports for children and young people across the world.

None more so than Paul Gascoigne, who made a late cameo to find the net and provoke the biggest cheer of the afternoon from the Ibrox crowd. Playing for Rangers was one of the highlights of my career so it is always a privilege to relive that experience and to do so for a match celebrating our 150th anniversary makes it even more special. Jim Baxter had a wand of a left foot to establish himself not only as a Rangers legend but as one of Scotland’s greatest-ever players. The midfielder was an influential presence with the Gers and his country. ‘Slim Jim’ also supplied one of his best games to beat England in 1963.A consummate professional, Richard Gough became a Rangers legend over his two stints at Ibrox. The defender briefly departed the Glasgow giants after a decade in 1997 to try his skill in America with Kansas City Wizards. But he would return to Ibrox to enjoy one more season. His 15 years at Ibrox further returned a staggering 20 major honours with 10 top-flight titles. McCoist helped to make Rangers the all-conquering force in Scotland from the mid-1980s to the late-1990s. His haul of winners’ medals featured nine League Cups and a Scottish Cup.

On Sunday March 26, a star-studded Rangers Legends squad will play a World Legends squad full of global talent at Ibrox stadium at 2pm.Figo's countryman Nuno Gomes then flipped the scoreline on its head when he beat Neil Alexander in the home goal with an excellent. A team of club legends took on a Rest of the World select and served up a feast of football in the Glasgow sunshine.
