    Another Aberdeen free-kick.

    Again it's dealt with and Eintracht race forward but it all breaks down.

    Referee blows his whistle for a free-kick as the ball comes in.

    Perhaps the most frustrating thing in football.

    PAOK are beating Helsinki now. Not sure who scored, tbh.

    The high-energy music is blaring from the stadium speakers at Ibrox, where manager Michael Beale has just done his pre-match interviews and both sets of players have been out on the pitch.

    There's a ripple of applause for the home keeper Jack Butland. A look at the Betis team sheet confirms his opposite number will indeed be the former Manchester City and Barcelona man Claudio Bravo, who's made a timely recovery from injury with number one Rui Silva facing a spell on the sidelines.

    Jose Cifuentes starts for Rangers, behind a front three of Rabbi Matondo, Abdallah Sima and Kemar Roofe. I feel like goals won't be a problem tonight, at either end...

    Eintracht keep pressing for a third as Kelle Roos smothers a deflected effort.

    What a shift Aberdeen have put in. Do they have one more moment in them?

    Ten minutes to go. What you got, Dons?

    Eintracht go straight up the other end and force Kelle Roos into another stop.

    Meanwhile, Jamie McGrath is off for Ester Sokler.

    Ah, in it goes but it's just too high for Richard Jensen, who heads over.

    Nope, they can't.

    Eintracht clear two balls into the box but Aberdeen should probably have another free-kick.

    The Dons win a free-kick just inside the Eintracht half.

    Can they create a moment?

    A bit late with this, but Konstantinos Koulierakis has equalised for PAOK against HJK Helsinki in the other game in this group.

    A decent effort from Jessic Ngankam, who flicks a head backwards and sees it drop just wide.

  18. Four changes to Rangers XIpublished at 19:16 British Summer Time 21 September 2023

    Rangers v Real Betis (20:00)

    Michael Beale makes four changes to his Rangers side for a big night at Ibrox.

    In come Rabbi Matondo, Abdallah Sima, Jose Cifuentes and Borna Barisic.

    Danilo and Nicolas Raskin miss out with injury, Sam Lammers drops to the bench, and Ridvan Yilmaz couldn't get a place in the Europa League squad.

    What do you make of that, Rangers fans?

    It's so disappointing for Aberdeen to lose a goal from a corner. Koch is a centre-back, he is tall and he should have been picked up - but he wasn't.

    It's heart-wrenching, but when you aren't organised at set pieces, you pay the penalty.

    It's not a penalty for me. It's a perfectly-timed tackle.
