GREAT SAVE!published at 25 mins
Hamilton Accies 1-1 Rangers
The Ryan Jack v Luke Southwood battle continues. Jack fires a shot that seems destined to find the bottom corner but Southwood, displaying Ninja-like reflexes, gets down to brilliantly tip the ball round the post.
The keeper leaps to his feet to roar either his appreciation for his save, or his frustration at his defence for allowing Jack time and space to fire in the howitzer.
We're 25 minutes into a fascinating contest in South Lanarkshire.

Former Rangers and Hamilton midfielder on SportsoundQuote MessageThat's what Accies do to you. The game's so open, but they get something from somewhere. Davies does really well keeping the ball alive and Smith just gets there. Maybe we do have a game

Derek Ferguson
Former Rangers and Hamilton midfielder on SportsoundQuote MessageCalm as you like from Ryan Jack. He just passes it into the net. You could point the finger at Accies saying it's poor defensively but it's a calm finish from a guy that's in top form

Former Rangers and Hamilton midfielder on SportsoundQuote MessageIt makes sense for Defoe to play, but Morelos isn't a bad sub. In Defoe you have terrific movement, maybe not the same physical presence as Morelos, but he's a goal poacher

So, Rangers are without Alfredo Morelos, who was late returning from international duty with Colombia.
But Jermain Defoe is a more than handy replacement, isn't he? The veteran England striker scored a hat-trick when these sides last met at Ibrox in October.
He was also on target when Rangers were last on the Accies' plastic surface.
