Events

Match Events

  • 0' That's the starting whistle at Ibrox Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Rangers FC and Livingston FC.
  • 5' It looks surprising Livingston FC does not make any changes. Craig Sibbald has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 9' What composure from Joe Aribo! The Nigeria international strokes it home. 1-0.
  • 14' The 33-year-old Filip Helander has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 16' The England Jermain Defoe breaks the deadlock on 16 minutes. 2-0!
  • 21' Supporters expect more eagerness from Nicky Devlin, as he is very good at scoring at Ibrox Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 26' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 31' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Rangers FC and Livingston FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 36' Josh Mullin has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 212 appearances.
  • 41' Rangers FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 46' Josh Mullin is ready to make an impact after coming on for Efe Ambrose at the 46 minute mark.
  • 51' Livingston FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 56' Over 56 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 61' 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.
  • 64' Kemar Roofe has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jermain Defoe on 64 minute.
  • 67' Alan Forrest gets the nod from Livingston FC. He replaces Craig Sibbald and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 68' The referee calls foul for Jon Guthrie. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 73' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Rangers FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 75' Rangers FC ring the changes. Joe Aribo has done his job and it is now time for Scott Arfield to step up.
  • 80' Marvin Bartley has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 84' Time for substitution for Rangers FC. Ianis Hagi is replaced by Jordan Jones.
  • 85' The Livingston FC bench stirs into life. Jay Emmanuel-Thomas is withdrawn and Matej Poplatnik gets his opportunity.
  • 89' Ryan Jack has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 89.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Rangers FC players.
