Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Rangers FC gets underway.
- 5' The travelling Rangers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gary Holt will be considering his options from the bench.
- 20' Livingston FC is showing some good football. However, Livingston FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' Livingston FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Livingston FC that had 251 games and scored 245 goals.
- 35' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Rangers FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 40' Over 40 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 45' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 50' It’s high time Steven Gerrard made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 55' Jason Holt has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 57' Another substitution for Livingston FC to replace Jack Hamilton by Matej Poplatnik on 57 minute.
- 58' Rangers FC ring the changes. Ianis Hagi has done his job and it is now time for Kemar Roofe to step up.
- 63' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 65' Alfredo Morelos has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 65.
- 67' Scott Robinson is ready to make an impact after coming on for Alan Forrest at the 67 minute mark.
- 71' Cedric Itten is replacing Alfredo Morelos for the Rangers FC side.
- 76' Salim Kouider-Aissa has so much to prove this time. He replaces Matej Poplatnik on 76 minute.
- 81' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Filip Helander suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Livingston FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 0-0 the final result. will be bitterly disappointed.
