Rangers hero cut by shard of glass after team bus attacked on way to game – before players were bottled at full-time
Alfredo Morelos has undergone a terrifying ordeal after the ex-Rangers star was wounded by flying glass on his way to a game. Colombia striker Morelos ended his six-year Ibrox stay in 2023 to join Brazilian club Santos. 3 Alfredo Morelos celebrates goal for Atletico Nacional Credit: EPA 3 Atletico's team bus is attacked Credit: X 3 Windows were smashed on the team bus Credit: X The 29-year-old has been on loan to home-country side Atletico Nacional since last summer. The Medellin club travelled by coach to play Cucuta Deportivo in a Colombian Cup tie on Tuesday. But the bus came under attack from missile-throwing yobs on the way to Cucuta's General Santander stadium. Several windows were smashed, and Morelos sustained cuts to his foot from flying shards of glass. But it didn't stop "El Bufalo" playing and scoring in the cup tie after receiving treatment. He netted the third as he helped Atletico to a 3-0 win on the night for a 4-0 aggregate success. Morelos made 269 Rangers appearances, scoring 124 goals. The visiting players were pelted with bottles at full time, and needed police to escort them to the dressing-room. Atletico coach Javier Gandolfi fumed: "It wasn't the arrival we had hoped for. We were attacked by Cucuta fans, who damaged our equipment. "They smashed four or five windows on the team bus, and two or three of my players were hit by glass and other items. Billy Dodds on signing for Chelsea, falling in love with Rangers & meeting hero Davie Cooper "This is hard to endure. Matches should only be played out on the pitch." Cucuta president Wilmar Sanchez admitted Morelos had suffered a foot injury - but maintained: "It was not serious." He added: "The Atletico bus driver deviated from the intended route before being attacked by vandals." Colombia's premier league Dimayor condemned the fan misbehaviour. The league said: "We strongly reject the acts of violence that the Atletico Nacional team bus suffered on its way to the General Santander Stadium in Cucuta."

However, the former Rangers striker still managed to play and score for Atletico Nacional in a cup tie in Colombia. The bus attack occurred as the team was en route to a Copa Colombia match at Cucuta Deportivo, forcing a detour. The ex-Ibrox player's leg was injured by shattered glass. Last month, Morelos hit the 200-goal milestone in his career, with 124 goals in 269 games during his six-year stint at Rangers. Cucuta Deportivo's president, Wilmar Sanchez, said: "I had a discussion with the president of Atletico Nacional about whether the game should even go ahead after the cowardly attack on the team bus and injury to Alfredo Morelos."
