Events

Match Events

  • 0' That's the starting whistle at Ibrox Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Rangers FC and FCSB Bukarest.
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Vaclav Cerny made 490 appearances and scored 45 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' What a strike from Tom Lawrence! The score is 1-0.
  • 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.

  • 21' FCSB Bukarest fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 24' That is a card for Rangers FC. James Tavernier will be fuming at that decision.
  • 29' 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 Nedim Bajrami suffering a number of foals already.
  • 31' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Vaclav Cerny makes no mistake. 2-0!
  • 35' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Marius Stefanescu on 35 minutes.

  • 55' Vaclav Cerny with the second goal in the match!
  • 57' A tactical swap from Rangers FC — Hamza Igamane on, Cyriel Dessers off on 57 minutes.
  • 60' Malcom Edjouma makes way for Alexandru Musi at the 60 minute mark. A tactical switch from FCSB Bukarest.
  • 63' William Baeten has so much to prove this time. He replaces David Miculescu on 63 minute.
  • 68' Rangers FC ring the changes. Leon Balogun has done his job and it is now time for Robin Propper to step up.
  • 72' GOAL! Hamza Igamane fires home to make it 4-0!
  • 74' The Rangers FC manager makes a substitution. Nedim Bajrami departs to be replaced by Zak Lovelace.
  • 77' It’s gonna be a card for Alexandru Baluta.
  • 81' That is a card for Rangers FC. Connor Barron will be fuming at that decision.
  • 86' It’s high time Elias Charalambous made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
