Rangers booked their spot in the last 16 of the Europa League with a stunning triumph over Real Betis.
Philippe Clement's men went into the final group stage match of the tournament with the possibility of finishing first, second or third in Group C.
And thanks to Kemar Roofe's winner over Betis in Seville, the Ibrox side topped the table to ensure safe passage into the last 16 of the competition.
It means Rangers won't feature in the next round - the play-off round - instead awaiting the teams who qualify in the last 16 draw.
For Rangers, teams as varied as Roma, Milan, Lens, Young Boys and Qarabag all feature among the 16-strong list of possible opponents in the last 16 next year.
Who could Rangers face in Europa League last 16?
Rangers will face one of the eight teams that qualify from the knockout round play-off draw.
That means Clement's men will meet either a club that finished second in the Europa League group stage or a club that dropped into the competition having finished third in the Champions League group stage.
Rangers will be seeded for the draw alongside the seven other group-winning teams from the Europa League.
The teams in the knockout round play-off draw are as follows...
