Match Events

- 5' Rabbi Matondo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 33 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Luiz Henrique, as he is very good at scoring at Ibrox Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

- 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 30' It looks like no one’s ball. Rangers FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 35' 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 Guido Rodriguez suffering a number of foals already.
