00:00Well, that booking has just put Daniel Fernleeson on a bit of a tightrope because
00:09Gassama has gone at him every time he's got the ball and now he needs to be absolutely
00:14sure if he's going to be a challenge with Gassama.
00:22Two-minute stoppage at the start of the second half.
00:26Sosoho.
00:27He's just drifted away from Pittman.
00:33A good advanced position from Jack Butland.
00:35Isn't that a bad run from Scott Pittman?
00:40Scott Pittman still going at Livingston.
00:43Game number 441 for them.
00:57Given away by Gassama, he's trying to make up for it.
01:13Finlitson.
01:21Given away by Gassama, he's trying to make up for it.
01:24Finlitson.
01:27I understand why you made that mistake Ian.
01:54Some encouragement for Livingston is that Rangers have conceded in their last 14 away games
02:18in the Premiership.
02:26Pickman in and about there.
02:30Just to take the German Rangers to play a little short passes there when it may have been better
02:43served to just get it out of his feet.
02:45Magoma just clipped it into the channel.
02:54Pittman just drifted away from Winter.
02:59Yeah, good run from when he went up.
03:16Asgard.
03:19Side flag has gone up against KD Kusama.
03:44Stevie May is on to this.
03:49Suter makes the challenge and John Beaton waves away appeals because the flag is up.
03:55Yeah, he's offside.
03:56Another trademark Stevie May run.
03:58I don't think it's a penalty either.
03:59I think there's a coming together with John Suter but I don't think it would have been a penalty.
04:03but I think he's onside by the way.
04:04I think that would have been overturned but there's not enough in that at all.
04:13Stevie May is trying to get across John Suter.
04:15He doesn't quite do it.
04:34Muttland wants to clear that quickly.
04:44Muttland wants to clear that quickly.
04:47He's onside.
04:48He's onside.
04:49He's onside.
04:50He's onside.
04:51He's onside.
04:52He's onside.
04:53He's onside.
04:54He's onside.
04:55He's onside.
04:56He's onside.
04:57He's onside.
04:58He's onside.
04:59He's onside.
05:00He's onside.
05:01He's onside.
05:02He's onside.
05:03He's onside.
05:04He's onside.
05:05He's onside.
05:06He's onside.
05:07He's onside.
05:08He's onside.
05:09He's onside.
05:10He's onside.
05:11He's onside.
05:12He's onside.
05:13He's onside.
05:14Very promising.
05:29Kassama.
05:44Savanir.
05:48Raskan.
05:56Lewis Smith.
05:59Soho for Finlayson.
06:06Tate.
06:14.
06:31Tsuta…
06:34…pings another one towards Kassama.
06:37This time Finlayson is able to steer it away.
06:40Yeah, another good ball.
06:41John Tsuta has hit four and five of those today,
06:43today but the checker the ball off the unofficial surface just
06:49allowed Daniel to listen to
06:54get back
07:00didn't quite work out that time for John Suter
07:04no about a miscommunication and he's hoping that Ant-Man's going to take on
07:09his front foot with a forward pass rather than
07:13coming short
07:34Tracks by Magoma
07:37and Magoma's nice and tight there, Ronald Smith
07:43and
07:57Mozilla will take this
08:01away by Cornelius back by Sela
08:05Suter
08:07and
08:09man-made contact with Montgomery
08:11well you expect this will go into the box
08:19they're going to take it short
08:21I thought the big guys might have gone up here from this position
08:23just shows the change
08:25and David Martindale's approach
08:27Ian because back in the day that they've been loaded into the box
08:29that's nicely done down the line for
08:35Finlayson
08:37it's a hefty cross though and Andy Winter won't be getting anywhere near that
08:41he knows a
08:43brilliant position
08:45he knows a brilliant position
08:47he knows
08:49that
08:50he knows
08:51he knows a brilliant position
08:53Tittman heading towards it and
09:09as a goal kick
09:12Go Mark, tussling with Lewis Smith, Frankie
09:28Rangers
09:33Good wee battle that isn't it?
09:37It's nothing
09:58Tavernier
10:03Kusama
10:05Will this prove interesting for Rangers?
10:09Here getting into the box
10:12Tavernier tries to send it in there but it's blocked by Finlayson
10:17He did well
10:19Then he puts the brakes on because he can't go too tight
10:22with Kusama if he goes past him on that yellow card
10:35He did well to get the hands up, he's almost protesting his innocence there just going out to the challenge because he can't afford to be...
10:53I mean he's lucky still
11:05Because it's a lovely little roll from Kusama
11:09He's right on the tightrope
11:14He's right on the tightrope
11:22Second
11:24To give them some
11:26Breathing space
11:28Tavernier floats it in
11:30Frior electing to punch it again
11:34He said he can't take that in his gloves
11:39Tell you what I wouldn't mind seeing James Tavernier's heat map
11:55He's
11:57One of the many places he's not been today
11:59He's not been to today
12:04Yeah that's what shades are for we man
12:07Yeah, that's what shades are for, wee man.
12:24It's been a fairly scruffy start to the second half.
12:28Got another throw here for Tavernier and John Suter and Derek Cornelius make a late entry into the box.
12:41He wouldn't settle for Ruskan.
12:55That man has Montgomery to contend with.
12:59Well, just like Magic, the boys in the trucks behind them.
13:14That's pretty impressive for a right back, isn't it?
13:18Brilliant, just needs to fill in that bottom left corner and he's got a full suit.
13:23Been a bit slack at that corner.
13:26Kassama.
13:29Rock by Finlayson on a corner.
13:39In this corner.
13:48I'm just wondering where the sun might provide a problem.
13:50You can see Prio are already getting there. The big mitt up in front of his eyes trying to shield himself from the sun.
14:01Kassama available for a short one.
14:06Tavernier with the angle but not the delivery.
14:12Danny Wilson.
14:13Conor Barron keeping an eye on things.
14:22Yeah, really good.
14:24Yeah, really good.
14:27There was real security for that back four at times, Conor Barron.
14:36So, Soho.
14:40Tate.
14:41That one out of the stadium.
15:00Montgomery.
15:02Blocked by a suit-up.
15:04Stevie May.
15:05And Putlin.
15:06Makes a brilliant save.
15:07Swift reaction.
15:08Yeah, brilliant invention.
15:09Adam Montgomery, a little flick.
15:11Stevie May.
15:12Stevie May's coming and he tries to put the reverse on it.
15:16Looks like he's going to bend it towards the far top corner and then just shuts his foot.
15:21Try to go high above Jack Butlin.
15:22Try to go high above Jack Butlin.
15:23Really good stop.
15:24That was a save from Jack Butlin.
15:25And the man he denied will take the corner now.
15:28Yeah, brilliant invention.
15:29Yeah, brilliant invention.
15:30Adam Montgomery, a little flick.
15:32Stevie May's coming and he tries to put the reverse on it.
15:34Looks like he's going to bend it towards the far top corner and then just shuts his foot.
15:37Try to go high above Jack Butlin.
15:38Really good stop.
15:40Well, that was a save from Jack Butlin and the man he denied will take the corner now.
15:51Tim.
15:52One minute.
15:53Stevie May had it.
15:54Tim.
15:55Tim.
15:56Moments before and a nice pair of gloves there for the corner coming in.
16:17I'm watching the Livingstone bench.
16:18Obviously it wasn't followed through by Stevie Mae's delivery, I was really unhappy with that.
16:25It looks like a couple of subs being prepared by David Martindale.
16:443-0.
16:48Some arrivals.
17:05And your son.
17:08You can listen and Andy Winter will be the two players to make way.
17:14No.
17:18Still up.
17:19Smith.
17:20Now catching the jersey.
17:23Lewis Smith.
17:24That double change can happen now.
17:55Scored for Aberdeen in early.
17:56Smith.
17:58Adele.
17:59And off of that.
18:00That's all I'm getting there.
18:01Good.
18:02That's all I can do.
18:03Good.
18:04That's all I can do.
18:05You're playing in the middle.
18:06True.
18:07You've got a face.
18:08You've got a face.
18:09It's all I can do.
18:10I'm smiling.
18:11Smith, capable of making things happen, Stevie May, that was a wee challenge, you know, Stevie
18:33May just tried to be a little bit cute, click one inside, if they'd just dragged it inside,
18:39he might have had a few.
18:41I'm calling McLennan, he's playing out on that left side for her.
18:51Cornelius into Mioski.
19:02Cornelius into Mioski.
19:13Barron looking for Gassama, stopped by Silla.
19:23That and earlier, Adam Montgomery took the extra touch, stuffed out by Antman.
19:35Stevie May making that little angled run again in behind the full-back areas of Rangers.
19:48He's so good at it.
19:50Just wonder how much he's got left in the tank though for Damian Martindale.
19:58Souter clears.
20:09He gets himself across the front post.
20:14He already knows that John Souter is well beyond that area.
20:24A big spell for Livingston here as they search for an equaliser.
20:28Former Rangers man, Danny Wilson.
20:34And Lewis Smith looking to place that, Livingston crying for a handball.
20:50Fleurie, Sosoho.
21:02Smith.
21:03And Cornelius has got a brilliant block, you know.
21:28He's completely unmarked, the delivery is brilliant, but the set-up of Rangers from this
21:57throwing is absolutely appalling.
22:002v1.
22:01Adam Montgomery there just gets half a yard, and what a ball he's first done.
22:08And Moe Silla just coming in towards, and sends ahead a pass Jack Buckman, but again,
22:15it's way too easy for Livingston to get that half yard from Montgomery on that.
22:26We're offside, there is none.
22:28Livingston have got their equaliser.
22:30Moe Silla has his first goal in Scottish football.
22:34Well, Ian, you were talking about the first ten minutes of the game, and we showed a graphic
22:39how good what Livingston were, they didn't get any advantage of it, but they were good there
22:44for the last five minutes or so.
22:46And they've certainly taken advantage of that.
22:50David May, dragging that one wide, and all of a sudden, one side of this stadium is buzzing
22:58where the Livingston fans are housed.
23:00Yeah, they're writing around us here, Russell Martin.
23:13Russell Martin is preparing Mikey Moore.
23:26Asgard.
23:30And they know that it must not stay that way.
23:51But then Silla away, just sort of hope that's plenty on that.
24:19There's plenty of discussions on the Rangers bench as to who comes off for the three.
24:36Just back on his feet there.
24:43The Rangers need to play with urgency now.
24:47He can't argue that he's not the better side in the first period of the game, but that vulnerability
24:56has hit him again.
24:59That's a free kick there for Livingston, I think, and Stevie May.
25:06Cornelius has known exactly what he's doing.
25:08He just steps across him.
25:11He looks innocent, doesn't he?
25:16But believe me, he's not looking.
25:20Yeah, he's just facing him up there, making sure he's not getting round him.
25:26And what a great header.
25:28But again, Rangers need to be fully switched on.
25:32They've got themselves in front.
25:33They've got themselves in front.
25:39You said Chimiti.
25:40Big money, son.
25:42Cornelius is down, so that substitution, I just wondered whether they might change it.
25:47Or do you want to go again with someone else?
25:53James Tavernier receiving some instructions from his manager.
26:18He was talking about it probably doesn't do enough as a number 10.
26:21Well it is going to be...
26:42Having to change their last sub so Mikey Moore won't be...
26:51He's also receiving treatment here at the moment as there seems to be some confusion over Chimitees.
27:02What's going on here?
27:06Why is it in the back of your head here?
27:09Well Chimite has come on so it's two strikers.
27:14Coming in as a secondary striker and allowing Max Aries to bomb forward so...
27:29Slight shift in tactical approach from Russell Martin.
27:40Kingston are also going to be playing for his 17th club in nine countries.
27:49Wow.
27:51Some passport he's got isn't it?
27:53A few stamps on it he...
27:55More than 100 miles...
27:58The ship from...
28:02CB maig...
28:05Pequela...
28:11We'll replace him...
28:15Took it in at times as well for his team
28:29There's a three minute stoppage there
28:35Whilst we sorted out all those injuries
28:36Lewis Smith almost
28:41Got on the end of his block
28:45his own block on Magoma
29:00Trying to take it in
29:14Taking one look on that Lewis Smith challenge
29:16Not sure if he's just rolled his ankle or not
29:21He's a bit slow in getting it away
29:23He just gets caught, he does, he rolls his left ankle
29:25He's down actually
29:30I think he should be able to recover it's just
29:38strap it up and you know bite down and something got on with it
29:43It's all hands to the pump that a lot of man needs right now
29:45And that a man needs right now
29:52Dundee, St Mirren
29:55St Mirren
29:56Goldest draw with Celtic of course
30:02Russell losing to hearts
30:04How will it end here for Russell Martin?
30:07Yeah well this is not
30:09Get through this match for us
30:16Get through this match for us
30:18Right up in the game
30:22There, there it is there
30:23Just slightly
30:24He's up on his feet
30:29He's up on his feet
30:30He's up on his feet
30:32He's up on his feet
30:36One of those at the top
30:38Rangers have been feeling the heat
30:41Patrick Stewart
30:46Fell well
30:47And that will continue to be the case
30:51If Rangers fail miserably again
30:54To record a first league win
30:56Under Russell Martin
30:57I'm not even sure a victory is going to cut it
30:59With quite a few people mind
31:04Yeah well
31:05And he's
31:15I'm here
31:16And a corner
31:17For Livingston
31:18Well there a man down
31:19As McGovernay was making that
31:21Charging run down the outside
31:23And the goal man watching him
31:26Although he's back onto the pitch
31:27He's still lumping heavily
31:28He's still lumping heavily
31:30He's still
31:31He's still
31:35Getting over there for a while
31:36But Adam Montgomery has done now
31:38Along with
31:39Conor McLennan
31:40And this could be a very awkward situation
31:44For Rangers
31:46Well they've lost a bit of physical presence
31:49With Asgard
31:50And Cornelius gone off
31:59Yeah slightly behind him
32:00No real threat to Jack Butland
32:02Butland then goal
32:03And then goal
32:04Turbee
32:05Bale
32:06Go
32:07Go
32:09Go
32:11Go
32:12Go
32:13Go
32:13A foul
32:14ces
32:15I don't know what happened here, how's Macaulay take to contend with and he hasn't done that
32:32particularly well, but he has gone behind for a goal kick anyway.
32:45...tootor for Raskan, Rangers have it all to do again and that's it's becoming a familiar
32:52theme, Raskan has found Gassama though, Mioski wants service.
33:07...and a little bit jaded that ball inside him.
33:09...just get Atman, commit him into the ball, get him on his back feet, on his back feet.
33:17...and he's got a bit of joy down that left side here, look, because of the shape change,
33:26if they move it quick to that area, it's going to ask one of the central midfielders to break
33:30out in that positioning, they're already looking a bit tired.
33:33...
33:33Okay, Mikey Moore, who was going to come on before Cornelius was in, is going to come
33:46on shortly.
33:46...
33:47...
33:47...
33:50...
33:52...
33:53...
33:54...
33:56...
33:58...
34:02Mikey Moore started the last four matches on loan from Tottenham.
34:10It must be going to come on for Gassama you would think.
34:15Rame as well.
34:20...
34:21...
34:21...
34:22...
34:23...
34:24...
34:24...
34:26...
34:27...
34:28...
34:28...
34:28...
34:29...
34:30...
34:33had robbed ranges of
34:37Jaden has to come off here for mikey moore
34:44and they're deemed by rami i'm just trying to figure out how he's going left back now
34:51so he's got me thinking
34:58playing mikey moore on his own this full left side
35:02i mean if livingston can get the ball into the channel where lewis smith is operating
35:11he's looking across at davie martindale thinking i'm wide open here
35:25tabernet
35:32well rescued that max aarons has got to make that challenge though he's got to win the tackle
35:47that's by lewis smith
36:03perkeela runs ahead there's a shot by by rami and a yellow card for him as well well this
36:08the merest of touches by rami has is actually worked back ever so well there because he can
36:13read that lewis smith's going to come inside
36:17i mean that's the merest of touches on him
36:21i think he's a wee bit unlucky but again it's that area of the pitch
36:27russell martin has changed so much of this rangers team here because he
36:39has come for the curler but it wasn't happening
36:46well the second half is a
36:49showing a completely different reflection
36:53it's livingston now that are starting to really enjoy the big parts of the game the
36:58important parts of the game the shots on target shots on goal
37:01the way in this second second half
37:08we lost the committee will latch onto this though
37:11we'll ski alongside him
37:12here's raskan will there be an opening here rangers need there to be mikey moore straight into the midriff
37:23free or yeah we're right behind that i'm looking i'm thinking he's just going to shape this
37:29towards a far post a little bit of current one he's just getting too much in step and chokes the shot
37:35but it's one of those ones in that because the shape is all over the place for rangers because
37:40russell martin knows that he needs to win the game putting forward players on left right and center
37:45it's actually difficult for livings to combat because it's like it's like absolutely chaotic stuff
37:50but if they can just show them that's all but a patient
38:01taken off this two is by a seller
38:07rocky moore's shot
38:14raskan
38:16as if it is uh punched away
38:20a shot from mikey moore as i was saying rangers first effort on targets
38:45the monday night football from the premier league
38:47league sees david moore's face the club with which he won a european trophy
38:52now nuno's west ham 6 30 sky sports premier league tomorrow night and we're back with rangers as
38:59they face the other promoted team for kirk next sunday 2 30 sky sports football
39:06final five minutes you get the feeling uh there might be hefty amount of added on time as well as
39:11pekila tries to force the issue here and mikey moore tidies up
39:25i'm just gambling on the need for three points and their need is urgent
39:41more again
39:53balls cross
39:55kusama trying to keep that alive but unable to hook it back up to meoski's the initial challenge for the
40:00ball
40:05very dangerous cross towards the back post meoski's try to go on the end of it
40:10sam is maybe a bit caught flat-footed
40:12kerry relegated with st johnson last season but he stayed in the top flights he's coming on for the
40:23closing stages here i think it might be for it was going to be for lewis smith but he
40:29has to have to make sure soho is okay yeah he's feeling his calf he's done well today
40:39in the middle of the park he's looked quite composed on the ball got himself into a good defensive
40:44positions
40:49thought big marvin's trying to come on there make a comeback big marvin bartlett
40:53a bit surprised just showed it up in front of the back four
41:11this is soho can continue
41:23as we mentioned a fair amount of stoppers time
41:42the place of the just injured soho well that's telling me something right now that david martindale
41:48fancy's getting all three points he's not set one for one with those substitutions i tell you
41:54i think we know where they'll be sending the ball to yeah
42:18second leg against ross county as it stands there are going to be eight extra minutes in this match
42:37plenty of time for something else to happen yep i would imagine uh this game is not done in terms of for
42:44the goal mouth excitement
42:54to russell martin is going ballistic down here
42:59technical area at max errands he's trying to get him forward he's trying to get him involved in the game
43:04well he's involved now
43:11and montgomery the fourth livingston player to be booked they have had the most yellow cards in the
43:31premiership so far
43:35you know it's confirming it's going to be just the yellow card that would be upgraded but
43:39i'm looking tavernier will take this but it's a real good height
43:44lovingston have set up for the zonal marking
43:48information of eight more minutes
43:50free kick for rangers which james tavernier of course is over and boy do they need something to happen here
44:05tavernier floating it in
44:07good good defender good contact from livingston had to be perfect that ball
44:18it's happen here ready to go long
44:20and we'll get that cross from mcclennan yeah i'll tell you who did do well by army he saw mcclennan
44:50the rangers corner so i gave my basketball this ian this is good
45:02the sense of
45:05urgency now from rangers still without a win in the scottish premiership under russell martin
45:11it's happening it takes free off
45:23gets his cross in
45:26i don't think he was meant to go that way
45:29okay carry got that all wrong it's a hoof that with the outside
45:41it's having air it's a decent delivery
45:54blocks
45:57oh montgomery
45:59rothwell in and the oskies header
46:03terrific save from prior
46:05yeah a really good stop he's actually retreating towards his his own goal line as well but brilliant ball
46:22just pushing and probing for a winner tavernier's corner is cleared by sila mikey moore misses it completely
46:29the sun has been bundled over by tait
46:38they have no option
46:40oh they're all in here all the chips have been pushed into the middle of the table they've gone for it
46:45there's a lot of nerves of this livingston team as well
46:51there's r d jangling for all
46:53sent in by tavernier but
47:00livingston deal with it again rothwell
47:06mikey moore and another
47:09tavernier in raskan trying to get near it
47:25has done it and might well have won it
47:37russell martin may well be heading for his first premiership victory
47:44oh he just felt that the pressure was coming you you could see
47:51in livingston
47:53and it's max aarons who's been getting a doing from russell martin by the way
47:57from the touch line who comes up with a winner it looks like it's a brilliant finish danny wilson's
48:02just on his heels raskin with the first touch and when it falls to max aarons who's just
48:08in a boat just hoping for something he smashes it low and hard and finds that bottom corner
48:18makes really good contact and it looks like the winner
48:22what's the reaction of rangers bench he knows how important that goal could be for him
48:26well well what a major moment that could be for rossum
48:40it will still be most welcome for that man
48:45as much as if you were offended by any bad language
48:47not done yet but i mean russell martin has certainly
48:59going for it
49:11injury time goals this season
49:17injury time goals this season to be you
49:24heart in the 91st and now rangers have done something similar
49:31if they can see it out
49:36they will have their first
49:37Premiership win under Russell Martin.
50:00There will be a free kick here which will eat into the additional time that remains.
50:07Yeah, well the reaction was crazy, wasn't it?
50:11A sense of relief.
50:13You felt it broken.
50:23Chimiti.
50:27Livingston get one last chance.
50:32Tequila chasing.
50:34Savon has been held back on that.
50:38Will take us through to the final minute.
50:42Yeah, this won't be taken quite.
50:44He must be sick.
50:46I mean his team have been really good in the second period of the match.
50:52There will be no comeback now for Livingston.
51:02Russell Martin is nearly there.
51:03They'll be leapfrogging a few teams and moving out of the playoff position.
51:12McLennan's throw.
51:13He just felt as though Livingston got past that corner and settled the game down.
51:25Someone got down injured or something they might have.
51:26Quite literally now or never for Livingston.
51:27It's McLennan to launch it.
51:28Livingston need a break of the ball.
51:29And Pittman kept it alive and sent it back.
51:30It's McLennan to launch it.
51:31It's McLennan to launch it.
51:32Livingston need a break of the ball.
51:33And Pittman kept it alive and sent it back.
51:34It's McLennan to launch it.
51:35It took a number of two players in it and gives it a look.
51:36Just for Livingston to go past that corner and settle the game down.
51:38Someone get down injured or something they might have-
51:40Quite literally now or never for Livingston.
51:50It's McLennan to launch it.
51:51Livingston need a break of the ball.
51:53And Pittman kept it alive and sent it back.
52:01connection on it whatsoever. John Beaton has looked at his watch and Rangers are so very
52:10close to their first league winner this season. They have it. Russell Martin at last.
52:22Rangers this season. Max Ahrens, the unlikely match winner, his first goal in over three
52:31years, the man who was sent off in Bruges and who hadn't been seen since until today when he made a
52:40significant contribution. James Tavernier fired in a brilliant opener but then had a penalty saved
52:47and Livingston responded with a really good header from Moe Silla.
52:53And then Russell Martin made tactical changes galore, went for it and got what he wanted to
53:04kneel. Yeah, I mean, it's so important for him. You can see the relief. My eyes were drawn to the dugout
53:11after Max Ahrens, that man there had scored. Just got away from Danny Wilson but...
53:18And it was...
53:22And it was...
