Another set-piece troubles United's backline.

George Harmon whips a free-kick onto the head of Akil Wright, but his header loops just over the bar.

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos is down on the Hampden turf.

He's back up fairly quickly after some light treatment but that's another worry for Stuart Kettlewell.

He hasn't played a lot of football in the last few months and Motherwell can't lose any more bodies.

Motherwell get their first corner but the ball in is tame from Lennon Miller.

Stuart Kettlewell's men need a break from all the defending.

County are pressing for the opener and yet again, it's Ronan Hale testing the keeper.

Aidan Denholm fires a pass to the striker on the edge of the box, it sits up nicely to be hit and his left-foot volley is tipped just past the post by Jack Walton.

Rangers are playing with an intensity that Motherwell just can't handle.

Another injury concern for Motherwell?

Davor Zdravkovski doesn't look comfortable but he's going to try and play on after some treatment.

It's frenetic stuff in Dingwall, but somehow still goalless.

Michael Efete is the latest to go close. He steals the ball in midfield and charges towards the box, with his low drive deflected on its way through.

United goalie Jack Walton sticks out a leg and saves.

This is relentless from Rangers. No square passes, no sitting on possession here. They are absolutely going at Motherwell at every opportunity.

The tempo is so high it's hard to keep up and noticeably higher than last season. Real encouragement for their support too.

Cyriel Dessers has two goals already this season and he might fancy another this afternoon.

Rangers are playing with real verve and Motherwell are hanging on.

Another James Tavernier free-kick has Aston Oxborough sprawling and the Well keeper tips it behind.

Ronan Hale scurries down the left, skips inside Declan Gallagher and fires a shot across goal... But it's just wide.

The wee Irish striker is absolutely desperate to open his league account after scoring three in the League Cup. Playing like a man possessed.

After a bit of a tete-a-tete between Eamonn Brophy and Ronan Hale, it's the former who takes it.

And it's saved! Jack Walton redeems himself.

Brophy goes low to his left, but it's not close to the corner and Walton gets a strong hand to it.

Disaster for United keeper Jack Walton. He spills a tame Scott Allardice shot, Ronan Hale flies in on the rebound and Walton trips him.

Craig Napier takes his time to award the penalty, but eventually points to the spot.

Ronan Hale is certainly confident. County's new number nine just tried one from about 40 yards out, which dipped nicely - but not enough.

James Tavernier bends a 25-yard free-kick over the Well wall and Aston Oxborough parries behind.

The ball is in the net from the following corner as Robin Propper tees up Scott Wright to finish, but it had already gone out of play at the back post.

It's the strangest goal you'll see. Robin Propper tries to adjust but he gets it completely wrong. I don't think anyone can believe it.

Kristijan Trapanovski scampers into the hosts box and a cross-stroke-shot pings off the torso of Ross Laidlaw.

The County keeper didn't know much about it but it's a good stop since the replays show it deflected off Connor Randall.
