Rangers 3-0 Dundee
Tony Docherty must be tearing his hair out.
Another huge chance goes to waste, as Scott Tiffoney hesitates in front of goal following a really slack pass from James Tavernier.
Jack Butland saves and the Rangers captain gets away with one.
'Agonising for Carswell'published at 19:01 British Summer Time
Aberdeen 4-0 The Spartans
Willie Miller
Former Aberdeen captain on BBC Sportsound
Sokler manages to get on the end of yet another cross from MacKenzie to slide it in to the back of the net.
Looked as though Carswell might have done enough to keep it out, but agonisingly for the Spartans goalkeeper it trundles over the line.
'Difficult finish'published at 19:00 British Summer Time
Rangers 3-0 Dundee
Ian Murray
Former Rangers defender on BBC Sportsound
What a fantastic ball in that is, it's so quick as well.
The defenders and Carson have no time to set themselves.
It's a wonderful finish from Dessers on his right foot. He keeps it low, it's so difficult to do that.

Ester Sokler
It's another slick move.
A pinpoint switch finds Leighton Clarkson on the left. His pass for Jack Mackenzie nutmegs a Spartans player, and the full-back finds Sokler sliding in.
The striker is struggling for confidence and almost misses, but hooked it off goalkeeper Blair Carswell and into the net.
We'll give him it, I think...

Cyriel Dessers
Rangers are in the semis.
Nedim Bajrami puts a lovely ball from the left-hand side into Cyriel Dessers' path, and the Nigeria international lashes a first-time effort past Trevor Carson and into the back of the net.
There's a quick VAR check for offside, but the goal is given.
'Palmer-Houlden must score'published at 18:57 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
Rory Loy
Former Dundee striker on BBC Sportsound
He's got to score. Given the type of game this is and that they are 2-0 down, that has to go into the back of the net.
Golden opportunity missed.

Rangers 2-0 Dundee
Another big chance goes begging for Dundee.
Lyall Cameron delivers a gorgeous cross from the left and it's on a plate for Seb Palmer-Houlden, but he can't direct his header on target.
GREAT SAVE!published at 18:56 British Summer Time
Aberdeen 3-0 The Spartans
That's a great save from Spartans goalkeeper Blair Carswell, who flings himself to his left-hand side to push away Graeme Shinnie's effort.
GREAT SAVE!published at 18:54 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
A strong right hand from Trevor Carson denies Nedim Bajrami a first Rangers goal.
It's a powerful right-footed strike from the Albania international, and Carson reacts quickly to tip it over the bar.

The tempo of this game has inevitably dropped.
The Spartans are seeing a little bit more of the ball at the moment, but when Aberdeen do get back on to it they still look very dangerous.
Tavernier opens accountpublished at 18:51 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
First penalty of the season = first goal of the season for James Tavernier.

GREAT SAVE!published at 18:46 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
How have Dundee not pulled one back?
The ball drops to Simon Murray five yards out, but he can't beat Jack Butland in the Rangers goal.
Postpublished at 18:46 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
Vaclav Cerny cuts inside on to his left foot and plays a lovely ball into the six-yard box, but there's no-one on hand to finish and a shot from the edge of the box flies over the bar.

Aberdeen 3-0 The Spartans
Graeme Shinnie, back from illness, replaces Sivert Heltne Nilsen for Aberdeen.
'Never in doubt'published at 18:42 British Summer Time
Rangers 2-0 Dundee
Ian Murray
Former Rangers defender on BBC Sportsound
It's a really good penalty from Tavernier as Trevor Carson isn't far away from it.
Hit with speed and accuracy. Never in doubt.

James Tavernier (pen)
A first goal of the season for the captain, who beats Trevor Carson with pace and power to the left.
PENALTY to Rangers!published at 18:40 British Summer Time
Rangers 1-0 Dundee
Rangers' first spot kick of the season as Mo Sylla puts his arms around Cyriel Dessers at a corner.
Daft stuff.

Aberdeen 3-0 The Spartans
Tyrone Smith
BBC Sport Scotland at Pittodrie
The worst possible start to the second half for The Spartans.
This has the feel of a game that could get a bit messy for them if Aberdeen continue with their ruthless approach to this encounter.
GOAL! Aberdeen 3-0 Spartanspublished at 18:33 British Summer Time
Leighton Clarkson
Forty-five seconds into the second half and Aberdeen probably seal a place in the semi-finals.
Centre-back Slobodan Rubezic, of all people, swings in a brilliant cross and Clarkson makes a run from deep before stopping to nod home.

BBC Sport Scotland at Pittodrie
Topi Keskinen on for Pape Habib Gueye at the start of the second half.
His pace and directness will be the last thing the Spartans defence would have wanted after a torrid first half.
