David Moyes has said he wanted West Ham to draw Rangers in the last 16 of the Europa League.
The Scot could not hide his admiration for the way in which the Light Blues performed against Borussia Dortmund in the knock-out play-off.
The Gers produced a stunning performance at the Westfalenstadion, winning 4-2, before producing another fine display at Ibrox in a midweek draw.
The Hammers were drawn against La Liga side Sevilla in the next round, a very tricky draw given their track record.
Meanwhile, Gio van Bronckhorst’s men will take on Red Star Belgrade.
But Moyes has admitted he wanted to take on Rangers as he reflected on what they achieved by dumping Dortmund out of the competition.
He said: “I did [want Rangers], because I was looking forward to the prospect of going to Rangers.
“That would be a real tough game, Rangers did brilliantly well to overcome Dortmund.
“But great credit to them for getting through against Dortmund.”
