Well, I think that'll do us.
Thanks as ever for joining us on another long and eventual night of Scottish fitba.
We'll be back tomorrow with coverage of Hearts' Conference League trip to Riga.
Until then...
Before the international break, Rangers will hope to get back on track on Saturday when they welcome the Premiership's bottom side Dundee United to Ibrox.
Celtic will look to maintain their 100% start to the league season the following day when they travel to St Mirren.
FT: Shakhtar Donetsk 1-1 Celtic
Meanwhile, Celtic captain Callum McGregor hopes a point in Poland against Shakhtar Donetsk will be the launchpad to a challenge in Group F.
"Tonight will give us another bit of belief that we can get something from the group," the midfielder said.
"We come away from home and only have a 15-minute spell before half time we needed to dig in and be resilient and get through that.
"But I thought in the second half we were very good and created four or five big chances.
"We spoke about it today that we want to arrive and the only way to arrive is to get points in the group and to get something on the board tonight was really important.
"It is just another marker ahead of the next game and hopefully we can go on and get the win."

Of course, it wasn't just Rangers playing tonight.
In the earlier game, Celtic drew 1-1 in Warsaw with Shakhtar Donetsk and manager Ange Postecoglou believes his side "will get their rewards" if they keep playing as they did this evening.

Former Rangers striker on BBC Sportsound
Quote MessageAfter last week's game in Amsterdam there was a real ill feeling around the club - the fact they'd been beaten so easily, without a fight. At 0-0 tonight, they could be proud of the performance. The referee has taken a lot of stick tonight, but he got the big decisions right. When you're down to 10 men, it makes the task doubly hard, and Napoli's class shone through.

Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst tells BT Sport: "The performance was really good, the result wasn’t good. I don’t think we deserved a 3-0 loss.
“If you see how the game went on, how we reacted after last week, we were well in the game from the first minute with some big chances.
"With 10 men and 1-0 down, you have to take some risks, but we’re disappointed because we were well in the game at 11 v 11."
On James Sands' sending off: "I haven’t seen it clearly back, now they check everything and we have to rely on VAR. It was a moment in the game where we didn’t react well to the transition, but in the end it cost us a penalty and a red card."
Reaction on the way from this man...

Quote MessageWhen you look at tonight's starting line-up, none of the new players are there. Yilmaz, Colak and Davies cost a lot of money. It raises an eyebrow about recruitment when Van Bronckhorst goes to the players that were already at the club, rather than the players that have been brought in.

It's been a tough start for Rangers in a tough group.
It's still all to play for, though, with two sides on three points.

Quote MessageNapoli don't need possession to hurt teams. They're interested in getting into dangerous areas as quickly as possible. The transition - that's where they separate themselves from Ajax in terms of quality. They tore Liverpool apart, and they did the same tonight to a 10 men Rangers.

Quote MessageResult aside and performance aside they'll look to go forward now. Saturday's game is massive now. Morelos back is a positive, McGregor was a positive, Kent too. Jack and Davis in the middle of the park as well. There are a lot of positives for Rangers.

Rangers centre-back Connor Goldson tells BT Sport: "It's tough to take, but compared to last week it was a lot better. One decision changed the game.
"I can't fault the effort from everyone. Unfortunately it wasn't to be. We can look ourselves in the mirror and say we gave it everything we had.
"[The players] gave it everything. They're knackered, but at the same time it's the level we're at. We have to take the pill and swallow it."
FT: Rangers 0-3 Napoli
After Zielinski missed his first two attempts, Matteo Politano stepped up for the next spot-kick.
The left-footed player decided to go back across goal, placing it to McGregor's left-hand side.
His previous success on that side was his most recent penalty, too, against Juventus in June 2020.

Rangers have lost both of their opening Champions League group games this season.
This is only the second time this has happened, with the Gers also losing their first two group stage matches in 1996-97 under Walter Smith.

Those 11 goals Alan Hutton mentioned have come in three defeats.
It's hardly been straightforward opposition, but it doesn't make for good reading at all.
