Proper European night atmosphere at Ibrox Park for the Battle Of Britain.
The Teddy Bears supporters really do create a din that very few other venues in Europe can rival on these big nights.
Looks like bragging rights will go to Scotland tonight.
Spurs will come back
21 yard free stright over the bar by James Maddison. Manus Boyle style run up.
Blonde kid for Spurs is a player
Tide has turned here
Dragusin two strides to that small fat fellas one and he nudges him
Itās rare I watch football these days - it never even crossed my mind that there was Champions League action last night - but this fare from Ibrox is engrossing.
Ally McCoist on co-commentary giving it that big match feel although it really does deserve a prime time slot on UTV like Rangers used to get in the 1990s.
Disgraceful call
Spurs starting to find space, need to play quick, rangers legs going
Get in son, take that you Hun bastards
Thatās a lovely goal. Iād expect Kulusevski will go to Abu Dhabi for 115 million this summer.
What drama as Big Fraser Forster pulls off a sensational save after Cyril Dessers had done brilliantly to make the chance for himself.
And now Dessers scores!!! From a position about three yards offside. Disallowed.
Bergvell avoids being sent off after referee goes to his pocket to book him and then he realises Bergvall is already on yellow.
The highlights of this on Sportsnight later on will be worth watching. A lot for Barry Davies to get his teeth into.
Scintillating fare with a quintessentially British feel to it all.

As Ally McCoist so rightly says, everything thatās good about the BRITISH game on show tonight and a draw a fair result.
I imagine Big Phil Clement and Big Ange Postecoglou will share a cordial scotch or two in the oak panelled managerās office before Spurs get the overnight Pullman sleeper train back to London Euston.
I felt the referee was always going for the spray to mark the line for the wall ahead of the freekick, despite what that irksome orange bastard Ally McCoist was saying.
I donāt know how lads like @neilld can stomach watching 7 EPL games every weekend. The standard is absolutely putrid relative to the vast finances. Iād say Motherwell & St Mirren would finish top 6 in England if they had access to the same level of money.

Rangers got away with a few things tonight that you wouldnāt get away with at Kilmarnock.
As Ange would say, āits a long season mateā.
Congrats @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy and @starryplough incredible from Rovers in Europe this season. Not getting half the coverage it deserves.
Mental difference between performances in Europe and at home from Rovers.

Absolutely flying, what a team. Whisper it quietly, but even an outside chance of top eight with some of the last round fixtures to go.

Was just looking at the table there. You will probably need something from the Chelsea game which is a big ask. But last 24 or whatever it is would be incredible. As I understand it top 8 of those bottom 16 are seeded against a team in the bottom 8 so very winnable.
Pity Chelsea is away. Would have been a big payday.
The money must be rolling in though.
The summer season is paying now. But might come against them in the later rounds with a lack of fixtures.

Yeah, half the team might be gone for the knockout game
