Brondby 1-0 Rangers
Some really slack passing from Rangers as both Joe Aribo and Steven Davis give it away in quick succession.
Not often you say that.
Kyogo, Jota and Abada all score for Celtic; deflected cross off Juranovic had hosts level while Uzuni cut lead to 3-2

It's just not clicking for Rangers. Steven Gerrard is looking towards his bench...
Brondby 1-0 Rangers
James Tavernier is crowded on the right but does well to dig out a cross.
Hermansen gathers it easily under no pressure. Moments later, Joe Aribo dances his way to the byeline but the ball is ushered out of play.
Steven Gerrard will be demanding more urgency from his players. Yet to see it, though...
Brondby 1-0 Rangers
Rangers have only kept one clean sheet in their last eight games.
Seems unthinkable given their defensive brilliance last term.
Brondby 1-0 Rangers
Here we go. Rangers kick off a huge second 45 minutes in their Europa League campaign.
Are the Ibrox side getting back into this one?
HT: Brondby 1-0 Rangers
Elsewhere in Group A, there are no goals to separate Lyon and Sparta Prague.
As it stands, that means Rangers are currently bottom of the group - two points short of second-placed Sparta and seven off Lyon in top spot.
Big, big second half coming up for Steven Gerrard's men.

Quote MessageIt's awful defending. Balogun either gets his positioning wrong or doesn't know where his man is. But he should, he's holding onto him.
Brondby v Rangers (17:45)
Rangers fans, you will be delighted to this man back in the squad after six weeks out.
There was no place in the starting line-up for Ryan Kent tonight, but could the winger make the difference off the bench?
Click that thumbs up if it's time to throw on the ex-Liverpool man...

Quote MessageIt's as if Leon Balogun is a centre forward with the way he puts the ball past Allan McGregor! The last thing he can do in that instance is header it goalward.
What a sucker-punch that is right on the half-time whistle.
After starting the game promisingly, Steven Gerrard's men go into the break a goal down with Leon Balogun's own goal separating the sides.
How do Rangers get back into this one?
Leon Balogun (own goal)
Oh dear.
Rangers are asked to deal with another corner. This time the ball comes in with whip towards the near post.
The visitors don't win the first ball that's flicked on and Leon Balogun ends up heading into his own net.
Brondby 0-0 Rangers
Crucial stage in the game for Rangers as they have to deal with another Brondby corner.
The first delivery comes to nothing, as does Bruus' cross on the second phase.
Closing in on the half-time break.
Brondby 0-0 Rangers

Quote MessageMorelos has got to head that back across goal. Goldson does well with the initial header but Morelos is at difficult angle and with two Rangers players waiting in the centre, he shouldn't be heading it goalwards.
Brondby 0-0 Rangers
Great play from Fashion Sakala who drives into the Brondby box and wins a corner.
Borna Barisic's outswinging delivery is met by Connor Goldson, but his header is blocked.
Alfredo Morelos nods the rebound towards goal but Hermansen gathers easily at his top-left corner.
Brondby 0-0 Rangers
It's pretty clear to see why the home side are still yet to score a Europa League group goal.
They've got themselves into a fair few dangerous areas in this first half but nothing has come of them.

Quote MessageRangers are just sitting deep tonight and not taking any risks, a real contrast to Sunday against Motherwell
Brondby 0-0 Rangers
Up the other end, Rangers have a deep free-kick.
It's prime James Tavernier territory. The captain's delivery finds Joe Aribo, but the midfielder can't guide his header on target.
Brondby 0-0 Rangers
Dearie me. Allan McGregor is dealt a short back pass and his clearance just hits off Urhe.
Could've gone anywhere. Bit of a scare that for the visitors.
