The Portuguese winger quickly turned the ball back into the box and Titus Bramble and Jean-Alain Boumsong, who slipped, allowed McBride to sidefoot into the net.
He was then upended in the box to win a 75th minute penalty which was converted by Jean-Claude Darcheville to give the Ibrox side a priceless opening victory in Group E.
The heart shaped keepsake box filled with Grand Marnier truffles, cognac truffles, and a praline heart at Jean Philippe Patisserie is sure to jump start the evening.
