It all came after Matondo was bundled over in the area after a clumsy touch from Alvarez.
Could we have a late comeback on our hands!?

AN OPEN GOAL!!!
Alfredo Morelos does so well to take the ball away from the goalkeeper, rounds him, but somehow sends his shot wide with the goal gaping.
My word.

That's by far and away the biggest cheer of the night from the Rangers fans. Perhaps says a lot about the rest of what the crowd have watched, certainly from the home team.

Scrap that, still 2-0!
Mohammed Kudus looked to have knocked in a third, but the Ajax forward was offside after a VAR check. My, oh my, that must have been inches.
Huuuuuge let off for Rangers.
Mohammed Kudus
Leo Ostigard has just given Napoli the lead in Anfield. It looks like the high-flying Italians are going to top Group A.
Both sides playing within themselves a bit as we tick by 50 minutes. Can Rangers give us something in this second half?
