    Tillman has the quality to go and light it up. Sometimes you just have to be the guy to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and get the goal.

    That penalty from James Tavernier is the Rangers captain's 16th European goal.

    A right-back and that...

  7. HALF-TIME: Rangers 1-0 Union SG (agg 1-2)published at 20:33 British Summer Time 9 August 2022

    James Tavernier's penalty on the stroke of half-time has got the home side right back into this tie.

    Rangers started like a house on fire but began to look a bit rattled as the first period progressed.

    That Tavernier spot kick will do wonders for the Ibrox side, however.

    A huge 45 minutes - and maybe more - on the way.

    Game on!

    James Tavernier steps up and you know the rest. Keeper sent wrong way. The net ripples. The crowd go wild.

    You can forget that bit about Rangers needing half-time as they've got a penalty!

    A bonkers handball from Van der Heyden as he tries to win a header.

    HUGE, HUGE tackle from James Tavernier.

    A one-two in the Rangers box almost catches the Rangers captain out but he recovers brilliantly.

    All of a sudden the hosts look like they need the break!

    The free-kick from the left of the box is worked to Union captain Teuma, but his shot is blocked by the Rangers defence.

    The hosts starting to look shaky as half-time nears...

    Inches away from a Union penalty.

    Malik Tillman catches Van der Heyden right on the edge of the Rangers box and the referee blows.

    Couldn't get much closer to the line.

    Moments after Sands' booking, Union defender Sykes is also shown a yellow card for timewasting at a throw in.

    James Sands is on thin ice now as the centre-back catches Union midfielder Amani late on the halfway line.

    Straight into the referee's book.

    They're looking good defensively, Union. Their back three has been very tight so far. Then they drop into a five at the back and it is difficult to breakdown.

    Ryan Kent looks to pluck down a high ball in the Union box but his touch isn't there and the ball runs out.

    John Lundstram then gives his team-mates a bit of a scare as he misplaces a square pass.

    Tom Lawrence has been busy and he's on the ball again 25 yards from goal.

    The former Derby man jinks onto his right foot and bends a low, curling shot just wide of the far post.

    Giovanni van Bronckhorst is screaming for Rangers to keep their intensity levels up.

    It's been full-throttle stuff from the home side in this opening half an hour.

    Kent brings a different dynamic. Union double up on him which creates space in behind the covering defender. They need to recognise that space is there.
