- 90'+4'That's all for today, goodbye!
- 90'+4'It's a great lead for Rangers to take into the second leg, which will take place in Belgrade next Thursday. Before that, they're in Scottish Cup action against Dundee. Red Star's 16-game unbeaten run is brought to an end with this loss, and they face Metalac in the Serbian Superliga before the return game.
- 90'+4'Rangers are taking a 3-0 advantage over Red Star into the second leg. Katai had two early goals ruled out for offside on either side of Tavernier's brilliant penalty. Morelos then volleyed in a second with just 15 minutes on the clock. McGregor also made a great save to deny Katai's spot-kick at the other end in the first half. After the break, Balogun thumped Tavernier's corner in to secure the win. Ben thought he'd pulled one back late on, but Red Star were once again denied by the offside flag.
- 90'+4'FULL-TIME: RANGERS 3-0 RED STAR.
- 90'+3'Sands brings the ball down and Ben gets there slightly late with a high boot. He's shown a yellow card.
- 90'+1'GOOD SAVE! Kanga loses it in midfield and fails in his attempts to tug Kamara back. He threads it through to Sakala, who takes the shot from the edge of the box, but it's held by Borjan.
- 89'GREAT CHANCE! Rangers are starting to look very tired now, but Kamara wins a free-kick on his way to take it to the corner. Tavernier swings it in and Goldson is free at the back post, but he can't react quick enough to head it home from very close range.
- 87'It's a lovely switch of play from Sanogo out to Kanga and he cushions it down for Pavkov. His first touch bounces up against Balogun, but the offside flag is up against the visitors again.
- 85'OFFSIDE! Ivanic drills a low shot on goal from the edge of the box and McGregor gets down quickly to push it away. Ben follows in to slot it into the empty net, but he was in an offside position from Ivanic's shot and Red Star have another goal chalked off.
- 84'Katai is going off now and it's Motika that's on in his place.
- 90'+3'

- 60'Yellow card23 - Milan RodicAribo is getting away and Rodic gets nowhere near the ball as he steps across him. He steps on Aribo's foot and is shown the yellow card.
- 51'Goal16 - Leon BalogunGoal! Rangers 3, Red Star Belgrade 0. Leon Balogun (Rangers) header from the centre of the box to the bottom right corner. Assisted by James Tavernier with a cross following a corner.
- 30'Yellow card7 - Joe AriboAribo almost nicks it off Katai, but his touch gets away from him. He slides in on Sanogo to try and make up for it and he takes out the midfielder to earn a booking.
- 25'Yellow card35 - Sekou SanogoRangers just can't clear their lines from a corner, and amongst the chaos, Sanogo goes for an overhead kick, taking Lundstram's legs out from under him in the process. He's shown a yellow card.
