SEVILLE, Spain (Reuters) - Eintracht Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner praised the playing style of their Europa League final opponents Rangers, likening them to the German side's previous conquests Barcelona and West Ham United.

Eintracht dispatched Spanish giants Barcelona in the quarter-final, before beating London club West Ham in the semis and Glasner feels those encounters give his side a reference point for Wednesday's final in Seville.

"Rangers are a team that will constantly and robustly engage you in one-on-one battles and are willing to make the runs at the back. James Tavernier is the top goalscorer in the Europa League and he is a fullback, which shows how high their fullbacks play and their contributions up-front." "The emotions have only grown in the last few months, I’m so proud of the players and what they’ve produced and achieved. They deserve to be in the final," Glasner said.

"I was trying to think about what to say to my players tomorrow but I think I don't even need to make a motivational speech because we know each other so well and know what we have to do to succeed."
