THREE football fans have been arrested after Rangers’ Europa League clash with Villarreal last night.
Cops confirmed two supporters were huckled for alleged minor assaults while a third was nicked for alleged breach of the peace.
The Gers fan is led away from the linesman
The winger was sent off
It comes as Gers face a Uefa rap after a Light Blues fan allegedly came onto the pitch when Daniel Candeias was sent off in the goalless match.
The Portuguese winger was sent off for two first-half bookings, the second coming following a tussle with Villarreal midfielder Santiago Caseres.

We told earlier how Rangers had been cited by Uefa because Alfredo Morelos was late out of the dressing room against Spartak Moscow, causing the match to kick off two minutes late.
Last month a 30-year-old man was arrested and charged with allegedly striking a linesman with a coin during the Ibrox club’s loss to Livingston.
