  1. Rangers 5-0 Dunfermline

    Scott Wrights darts into the penalty area and tries to pick out Kemar Roofe, who is on a hat-trick, but Dunfermline manage to scramble it clear.

  2. 'Stonewaller'

    Former Rangers & Dunfermline forward

    It's a stonewaller, Roofe just nicks in front of Dorrans and Dorrans trips him up

    GOAL Rangers 5-0 Dunfermline

    Kemar Roofe

    Kemar Roofe takes the penalty himself, and although the goalkeeper guesses right he places it into the bottom right-hand corner, his second goal of the night and Rangers' fifth.

    Kemar Roofe gets knocked over by Graham Dorrans, and Rangers have a penalty.

    The visitors make another change. Midfielder Reece Cole comes on for Craig Wighton.

  6. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Richard Foster
    Former Rangers defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    If you're a young player watching this game, it's brilliant watching Ianis Hagi taking set plays with both feet. It's something all players should strive to do.

  7. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Rory Loy
    Former Rangers & Dunfermline forward

    I'm really surprised Dunfermline have not changed their shape

  8. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Dunfermline struggling to get the ball away from their own box. John Lundstram faints, puts the ball onto his right foot and attempts a shot, but it's charged down.

    Eventually Joe Aribo and Kemar Roofe try to link up but the move breaks down.

  9. PENALTY APPEAL

    Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Another penalty appeal from Rangers as John Lundstram's shot his the arm of Dan Pybus, but it would have been harsh and referee Willie Collum agrees.

  10. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    We're back underway for the second half.

    Dunfermline have made a change; Ryan Dow and Dom Thomas both enter the fray, with Kevin O'Hara and Kyle MacDonald making way.

  11. HT: Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Rory Loy
    Former Rangers & Dunfermline forward

    I don't expect Rangers to let up until the final whistle blows.

  12. Elsewhere

    Edinburgh City 1-0 Stenhousemuir

    Ryan Shanley has just given Edinburgh City the lead in the League 2 clash with Stenhousemuir, the other Scottish game taking place tonight.

  13. HT: Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Rory Loy
    Former Rangers & Dunfermline forward

    Dunfermline have not offered much in the attacking half of the pitch and anything they have offered have come from Rangers mistakes. Dan Pybus has been posted missing, as have a few other players. Graham Dorrans has made mistakes but at least he's showing for the ball, he's not hiding.

    HT: Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    What do you make of the first 45 minutes?

  15. HALF-TIME Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    It's not a scoreline that flatters Rangers at all. Dunfermline have been passive and the home side have taken full advantage.

    John Lundstram, Scott Wright and Ianis Hagi all scored within the opening 20 minutes before Kemar Roofe hammered in a fourth

    The last time these two met it was 6-0, and at the moment Dunfermline will be doing well to avoid a repeat, or worse.

  16. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Richard Foster
    Former Rangers defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    There are ways to lose games and for me Dunfermline are not going about it the right way. Have they made a tackle? Have they upended any Rangers player? Go and try and impact the game, make a statement, it's just too easy for the Rangers players. Ianis Hais is starting to do tricks, it's like a training game for them.

  17. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Rory Loy
    Former Rangers & Dunfermline forward

    I feel a bit sorry for Peter Grant. He's just in the door, but his boys are having a tough time tonight. Certainly losing that early goal has been the catalyst for the first half.

  18. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Rangers are trying some intricate passing on the edge of the box to open up Dunfermline, but nine players the visitors had back defender and they manage to get it clear.

  19. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Ianis Hagi took a knock earlier and he doesn't appear to be shaking it off, and he looks to be in a great deal of discomfort. But Steven Gerrard hasn't made the substitution just yet. There is just seven minutes until the break so he may give him the chance to run it off.

  20. Rangers 4-0 Dunfermline

    Suddenly there's a chance for Dunfermline. Connor Goldson takes his eye off the ball for a second and goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin has to get down low to deflect away the shot.
