Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Rangers FC and RB Leipzig is underway.
  • 5' Allan McGregor needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 10' RB Leipzig seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
  • 18' Goal! James Tavernier scores his 108 goal in 402 matches.
  • 19' What a strike from James Tavernier! The score is 2-0.
  • 24' GOAL! Glen Kamara scores on 24. Assisted by Scott Wright
  • 26' Calvin Bassey was booked on 26.
  • 31' The referee calls foul for Connor Goldson. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 36' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 41' 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.
  • 43' Rangers FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 44' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Borna Barisic.
  • 45' Time for substitution for Rangers FC. Joe Aribo is replaced by Fashion Sakala.
  • 50' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 52' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Kevin Kampl.
  • 57' Scott Wright has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 59' Rangers FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Scott Arfield is hanging Scott Wright on the field on 59 minute.
  • 62' Another substitution for RB Leipzig to replace Dani Olmo by Dominik Szoboszlai on 62 minute.
  • 67' 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.
  • 71' Goal! Christopher Nkunku scores his 90 goal in 520 matches.
  • 76' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering RB Leipzig that had 513 games and scored 719 goals.
  • 81' GOAL! John Lundstram scores on 81.
  • 82' RB Leipzig manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Marcel Halstenberg is hanging Yussuf Poulsen on the field on 82 minute.
  • 87' 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 Konrad Laimer suffering a number of foals already.
  • Another three points for Rangers FC.
