DaMarcus Beasley says he had problems while with PSV

Team-mate Jean-Claude Darcheville was also verbally abused by some home fans in the Champions League qualifier.

Uefa's delegate at the match has included the incident in his report and Zeta could face heavy punishment.

And Beasley, who hit the 81st-minute winner, said: "That's something Fifa and Uefa must fight with and solve."

Beasley says he suffered similar abuse when playing for previous club PSV Eindhoven.

"This is the 21st century and we are still having trouble with it," he added.

"I've faced that kind of situation throughout my whole career in Europe, not so much during my playing days in England, but even in Holland I've had similar problems."

I feel strongly about it and we will decide if we should file a complaint DaMarcus Beasley

Uefa will also consider incidents in which bottles were thrown from a stand containing home supporters when Zeta were denied a penalty in the second half - and an incident of Rangers substitute Charlie Adam being struck by a lighter.

Red Star Belgrade could be the next opponents for Rangers in the Champions League.

The Serbian side lead Levadia Tallinn 1-0 after the first leg and face a tricky test in Estonia on Wednesday evening.

But Beasley recalled a Champions League qualifier he played for PSV against Red Star in August 2004, when he also came in for abuse.

"I remember playing against Red Star Belgrade, and I mention them as they could be our next opponents in the Champions League, and I still remember some racist chants at that away match," he stated.

"I will discuss the situation with Rangers because I feel strongly about it and we will decide if we should file a complaint."

There were no reported incidents of Rangers supporters misbehaving during the game.

They had been warned that any incidents of sectarian chanting could result in strong-handed action by Uefa against the club.

Rangers manager Walter Smith praised his side for subduing the threat of Zeta to progress from the second round of Champions League qualifying.

"It was always going to be a nervy game," he told BBC Sport after the 3-0 aggregate victory. "I thought we handled it well.

"Zeta showed in the first game that they are dangerous if allowed to play.

"It was never going to be an easy match but we nullified any problems in the second game."

Smith was particularly pleased with his defence and added: "Going through was the most important aspect but that's three competitive games without losing a goal.
