Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Ibrox Stadium!
- 5' Dundee FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-1-4-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 15' Dundee FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 20' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 25' It’s high time made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 30' Rangers FC are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Dundee FC's 4-1-4-1 shape.
- 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Leon King made 406 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 38' A stunning finish from Jordan McGhee — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 40' Juan Portales does the damage! The net is bulging and Dundee FC surge ahead!
- 45' Ross McCausland makes no mistake. The score reads 1-2 and Rangers FC are in front.
- 50' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 52' Cyriel Dessers doubles the advantage! 2-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 57' It is a cagey affair so far. Rangers FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Dundee FC's compact 4-1-4-1.
- 61' The Rangers FC bench stirs into life. Ridvan Yilmaz is withdrawn and Robbie Fraser gets his opportunity.
- 65' GOAL! Todd Cantwell fires home to make it 3-2!
- 70' 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 Dara Costelloe suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' The whistle greets Scott Tiffoney as he departs to be replaced by Dara Costelloe.
- 75' Cole McKinnon gets the nod from Rangers FC. He replaces Leon King and will look to change the dynamic.

- 83' Rangers FC make a change. Fabio Silva trudges off to be replaced by Kemar Roofe on 83 minutes.
- 86' Another change for Dundee FC made on 86 minute. Malachi Boateng leaves to be changed by Michael Mellon.
- 87' GOAL! Scott Wright fires home to make it 4-2!
- Another three points for Rangers FC.
