Quote MessageThis will be a tough night for Benfica. They're still a good side, you can see that. But they can't keep this up all night. When Rangers are in control they really make them work.
Benfica 1-2 Rangers
The Portuguese appear spooked by the Otamendi red card, subsequent substitution and renewed belief displayed by Rangers.
From looking assured after taking the lead, Benfica appear nervy in defence and are coughing up possession as they seek an equaliser before the break.

Quote MessageThe keeper was absolutely rooted there. What a ball from Barasic, how many times have we said that sentence? If Aribo gets that on target it's a goal
Benfica 1-2 Rangers
What a chance for a third Rangers goal. Borna Barisic stands up a superb cross with the Benfica defence all at sea... Joe Aribo rises unchallenged to bullet a header... wide!
Benfica goalkeeper Vlachodimos was rooted to the spot.
It's raining in the skies and raining goals and chances in Lisbon.
Benfica 1-2 Rangers
What a turnaround in a sodden Lisbon. From trailing 1-0 and looking likely to concede again, Rangers have turned it round to lead following a red card, an own goal and a superb Glen Kamara strike.
Who said the Europa League can't offer Champions League-style drama?

Quote MessageThis game has just flipped on it's head. I've been crying out for Kamara to shoot more often and he got the reward. Brilliant play from Morelos in the build up too.
Kamara
In the blink of an eye, Rangers lead 10-man Benfica with two goals in a minute. The visitors, emboldened by Goncalves' own goal, come thundering forward again and Glen Kamara finds the bottom corner with a sumptuous low drive.
Benfica 1-0 Rangers

Quote MessageSteven Davis sees the pass and just hits it. It's a typical run from Ryan Kent and when he cuts across there is a tangle of legs. By the letter of the law that is a red card
Benfica 1-0 Rangers
Nicolas Otamendi is given his marching orders for a foul on the galloping Ryan Kent.
The Rangers winger chases down a long ball and Otamendi clips the former Liverpool man before seeing red.
Rangers can't profit from the subsequent free-kick as Tavernier's effort finds the middle of the Benfica wall.
Game on!
Benfica 1-0 Rangers
Ryan Jack does brilliantly to mop up the danger on the edge of the area and thwart another Benfica attack.
Steven Gerrard will be hoping that his side can begin to flex their attacking muscles.

Quote MessageI thought before the game that the Rangers full-backs would sit back a little more. That's not the case they are leaving a lot of space in behind them.
Benfica 1-0 Rangers
As the heavens open in the Lisbon sky, Benfica come pouring forward in search of a second goal.
They're attempting to stretch Rangers down both flanks but the visitors stem the tide and it remains 1-0 to the Portuguese.
Benfica 1-0 Rangers
Benfica launch a lightning raid on Rangers territory after James Tavernier's corner is cleared.
Red shirts swarm forward as they look to capitalise on their numerical advantage but Afonso Fernandes sends a shot whistling inches wide of Allan McGregor's goal.
Benfica 1-0 Rangers
Alfredo Morelos is trying to force his way into proceedings by giving the Benfica defence a headache.
However, the Colombian is penalised for a push on former Manchester City defender Nicolas Otamendi - much to Morelos's chagrin.
Stung by that early goal, Rangers are trying to ease their way into the game by stringing a few passes together in midfield.
But Benfica are looking razor sharp on the counter...

Quote MessageHelander gets himself in all sorts of trouble. He could have given away a penalty but then he lets him go. It's just indecision from him that causes it.
Connor Goldson own goal
It's a nightmare start for Rangers as the hosts come roaring out of the traps, attacking down the right and capitalising on a mistake by Filip Helander.
Connor Goldson looks on helplessly as he turns Ferreira Silva's low, dangerous cross into his own net.

Quote MessageThe scary thing about Rangers is that for me Morelos and Kent haven't reached the levels they can in the last three or four games. If they catch fire this team could be even better
Benfica v Rangers (17:55)
Both sides trot out onto the lush turf at the Estádio da Luz. Benfica and Rangers go into tonight's clash with six points from six in Group D.
Who will draw first blood tonight?
