Rangers
Scotland · Our head-to-head record
The Terrors and the Gers met only sparingly prior to 1960, at which time United were promoted to the "old" Division One. In 1940, however, Rangers became United's first major competitive cup final opponents, in the Emergency War Cup final. Since then, United had competed against Rangers in Scotland's top tier until the Glasgow club's financial problems in 2012. In 1994, United secured their first ever Scottish Cup by beating Rangers, under new manager Ivan Golac, preventing former United player and Rangers manager Walter Smith from securing a historic back-to-back treble with the Glasgow side.
