Morelos scores four, and Halliday gets the other, as Rangers thrash Kilmarnock to set up quarter-final at Aberdeen
Kilmarnock reduced to 10 when Bachmann was sent off for catching Kamara with elbow
Alfredo Morelos
Image source, BBC SIt's almost a carbon copy of the first as Alfredo Morelos strikes again. James Tavernier and Daniel Candeias combine down the right, Candeias crosses and Morelos, this time with his head, finishes from just a few yards out. Incisive stuff from Rangers. Kilmarnock have a mountain to climb.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock

Quote MessageRangers are forcing the issue. Killie are being thrown all over the place while trying to stay structured which is causing them trouble. What they can't do is let the opposition full back get into their 18 yard area and have a pop at goal.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
Ryan Kent jinks into the box and wins a corner for Rangers. The ball is swung in and the ball trundles into the net. But the referee's whistle had already blown for a foul. Kilmarnock live to fight another day.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
What a hit from James Tavernier. The Rangers captain marauds forward and unleashes a fizzing shot which crashes off the bar and bounces clear. The hosts are cranking up the pressure.

Quote MessageAlfredo Morelos didn't miss that by much. It was a nice ball from Glen Kamara, Daniel Candeias was very quick to get the bye-line. Kilmarnock have gone with the four in midfield - Alan Power is out wide, he's not really suited to that position but he's having to do it now because Chris Burke has gone to the left

Alfredo Morelos is inches away from a second goal. Daniel Candeias again fires in a delightful cross, but it evades the Colombian striker's outstretched leg.

Quote MessageKilmarnock have had to do some amount of reshuffling. Gary Dicker has dropped to right centre-back with Bruce off. They've got three central midfielders strung out with Burke making up the four with Brophy up front on his own. It's basically a 4-4-1 now.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
To make matters worse for Kilmarnock, defender Alex Bruce has limped off with an injury. He's replaced by Aaron Tshibola. Jamie MacDonald is on to replace Daniel Bachmann in goal, Conor McAleny is the player to make way.

Daniel Bachmann
Replays show Daniel Bachmann puts is hands up in the air to try and make space for himself. He catches Glen Kamara, who hits the deck, and referee Alan Muir has deemed it worthy of a red card. I have a feeling Steve Clarke might have something to say about that one...
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
Scott Arfield passes up a great chance to double Rangers' lead. Borna Barisic robs Stephen O'Donnell and pokes it forward to Alfredo Morelos. The Colombian striker batters into the box and tees up Arfield, but his shot from 10 yards is weak and Daniel Bachmann smothers it.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
The combination of James Tavernier and Daniel Candeias down the right-hand side is proving fruitful for Rangers. Candeias whips a superb ball in but Alex Bruce heads it clear. Killie goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann then scrambles to punch the corner clear.

Quote MessageI don't think Steve Clarke's game plan will change just now, I don't think he'll be too upset. He'll be upset about not getting the penalty but I don't think it alters any of his plans just now. But as it stands I think Kilmarnock are still keeping their structure
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
Rangers break forward and the in-form winger Ryan Kent drives into the Kilmarnock box. He does a few step-overs but then his shot is blocked by Stephen O'Donnell.
Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
It's a tad scrappy as both teams frantically press each other in possession. It's Kilmarnock with most of the ball at the moment but Rangers are comfortable.

Rangers 1-0 Kilmarnock
Kilmarnock venture forward now as they search for an equaliser. Chris Burke floats a ball in but James Tavernier is alert to clear.
Alfredo Morelos
Having missed Rangers' last two games, you just knew Alfredo Morelos would have a say tonight. It's probably the easiest of his 24 goals this season, tapping in from two yards after a ball across from Daniel Candeias. It was James Tavernier's sublime pass that set Candeias free down the right. Great team goal.
