Nicolas Otamendi takes a wild swipe at a John Lundstram clearance and gets lucky.

His centre-back partner is there to mop up.

The ball Rafa Silva puts in is begging to be put into the net.

Marcos Leonardo just hadn't kept up the pace of Silva into that right-hand side.

It was a great ball and a great run.

It's a great ball isn't it? To be fair to Tavernier he blocks a run.

But I'll say it again, I cannot believe Rangers' defending at their own corners.

The corner bounces its way to the edge of the box and Ridvan Yilmaz has a shot blocked.

Within seconds Benfica are attacking and Rafa Silva watches a gorgeous cross go across the face of goal.

Well played, Scott Wright.

He skips into the right of the box via a nutmeg on Nicolas Otamendi and wins a corner.

This game is... quick. Really quick.

Benfica motor right up the other end and Jack Butland's palms are warmed up by a long-range shot from Fredrik Aursnes.

Excellent counter. Silva and Tom Lawrence do so well. The goalkeeper's fortunate there, that could have been a howler.

Really quick counter attacking from Rangers, brilliant play.

The shot from Tom Lawrence really shouldn't have tested the goalkeeper but he's let it slip.

Ooft, almost an absolute howler from the keeper.

Tom Lawrence triggers an electric counter attack and plays a one-two with Fabio Silva.

Lawrence squeezes a shot to the near post and Anatolii Trubin watches the ball squirm through him and roll wide.

Up the end Benfica go and they win a corner, which is rubbish.

Rangers pounce on the ball on the edge of the Benfica box and John Lundstram finds Fabio Silva, who crosses to the back post.

James Tavernier is there but he's always stretching.

You can see the quality Benfica have already. They don't look daunted by this wall of noise at all.

Rangers haven't quite managed to impose themselves early to ramp up the pressure.

Benfica zip the ball about in the final third but Rangers hold their shape well and clear again.

They can't make the ball stick up the other end though and it comes back once more.

Rangers defend well and James Tavernier finds Tom Lawrence free on the break.

He doesn't have too many options though and it breaks down.

Fabio Silva is up and knocks one down to Tom Lawrence, but his touch is a bit heavy and Benfica launch it away.

These opening exchanges are hugely important.

I just noticed Connor Goldson and John Souttar just went for the same ball.

They probably couldn't hear the shout because of the noise in the stadium.

Rangers just need to settle down, they have made one or two slack passes.

The Benfica midfield are getting reintroduced to Mohamed Diomande early again.

He wins a tackle then clears as the away side dominate the ball in the opening couple of minutes.

John Souttar and Mohamed Diomande team up to pressure Rafa Silva out of play for a Rangers goal kick.
