GOAL St Johnstone 1-0 Rangerspublished at 40 mins
James Brown
Wow! Pick that out.
It's totally against the run of play, but St Johnstone hit the front!
Stevie May's shot is blocked, and it falls to Brown 25 yards out. The wing-back absolutely takes the leather off the ball as it flies past Allan McGregor.
A stunning strike.

Better from the home side as Stevie May has a shot blocked by Leon King.
It wasn't exactly a great chance but at least they've been in the Rangers box.

Not a single touch in the opposition box for St Johnstone so far.
Rangers have had 17 shots, but only three on target. Therein lies the problem so far...

St Johnstone 0-0 Rangers
Borna Barisic's cross is swallowed up by Saints goalkeeper Elliot Parish.
A moment before that and two sliding St Johnstone defenders had to intervene to stop Antonio Colak tapping in.
James Tavernier then whips a shot wide. All Rangers, but no goals.

PENALTY APPEALpublished at 24 mins
St Johnstone 0-0 Rangers
Rangers go short for their 10th corner of the match already, and John Lundstram has a lash towards the goal.
The ball comes off Alex Mitchell and the visitors are arguing for a penalty for handball.
The first replay seems to show it came off the top of his arm, so not below the line of the shirt.

Rangers keep coming, as Alex Mitchell has to step in to stop Antonio Colak getting a tap in.

Elliot Parish has to beat away James Tavernier's cross.
The Saints keeper has been pretty busy early on.

St Johnstone get up the pitch for the first time, but James Brown's cross is wayward.
Malik Tillman is in the mood today for Rangers, by the look of it.

That is a fantastic bit of defending from Andy Considine.
Malik Tillman plays a lovely ball through for Antonio Colak, who is clean through.
But the Saints centre-back gets back and dispossesses the striker.
Another corner for Rangers, as a header flies into Elliot Parish's hands.
GREAT SAVE!published at 9 mins

Rangers are up for this one.
A ball into the feet of Antonio Colak spells danger for Saints. He holds it and tees up John Lundstram, whose low shot is saved by Elliot Parish.

Another great ball to the back stick finds Malik Tillman, who gets a leg on it and diverts the ball across goal.
Saints keeper Elliot Parish doesn't deal with it at the first attempt but manages to scramble to ball away as Anontio Colak was lurking.

Rangers are well on top.
Andy Considine has to deal with a couple of teasing balls into the St Johnstone box.
