SEVILLE (Reuters) - Rangers coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst urged the 100,000 Scottish fans that are expected to arrive in Seville for Wednesday's Europa League final to be on their best behaviour.

"Is not often that we are able to reach a European final, so we have to enjoy this moment and make sure we don't cause any trouble," Van Bronckhorst told a news conference on Tuesday.

"I don't think is about the numbers. You bring 50 people and they cause chaos," Van Bronckhorst said."Half of the fans will go back home happy and the other half will go back angry but we should respect the host city. There are a lot of people working hard to accommodate us. Enjoy and don't leave any bad behind."

"Our fans will be a factor. We knew before if we could get a good result to take back to Ibrox, it meant we could get a result against any team. It’s different here but you will hear our fans tomorrow," he said. Roofe's return will provide a huge boost to Rangers, beaten in the 2008 Europa League final by Zenit St Petersburg, as they chase their first European silverware in 50 years following their success in the now-defunct Cup Winners' Cup in 1972.
