00:00and Emmanuel Fernandes is available
00:11well, Tawanda Masmanisi is the top scorer in the Premiership right now after his recent goal burst
00:21he's actually scored seven in his last six games for club and country
00:26Rangers have had a familiar source for goals as well
00:30James Tavernier, five in five lately and all the fives
00:35this is his 555th appearance for Rangers
00:39two managers who have made quite an impact at their clubs in different ways
00:47Steve McLean is the referee with John Beaton on VAR duty
00:52Rangers arrive at Firth Park in formidable form
00:59but this should be a major challenge for them because Motherwell are doing more than all right as well
01:04Chris
01:05yep, absolutely massive game this evening, massive five days for Rangers
01:10I think if they win tonight and against Hearts on Sunday they will be the team with the momentum
01:15but that's a big if the way Motherwell have performed this season
01:18Motherwell's only defeat in the last 15 Premiership matches was against Rangers at Ibrox
01:25just after Christmas
01:27two balls on the pitch at the moment so Jaden Magoma has to wait
01:41Chagwani back to Ziga
01:49it's going straight through to Karen Ward
02:02didn't quite reach his box though
02:04Mikey Moore
02:07Faddinger intervened
02:11Mikey Moore just waiting for that to drop
02:14trying to get the shot off but
02:15under pressure immediately
02:17McLean
02:38what's that taken again
02:39it looks like it is going to be Raskin and Chagwani just sitting in front of that Rangers back four
02:43Rangers haven't lost a regular league match at Perr Park since Boxing Day 2002
02:52James McFadden got the winner
02:55it's been a long old wait
02:57there was a playoff victory
03:00but nothing in actual league contests
03:04as Rangers get an early free kick
03:06and a chance to put one into the box
03:09and going with driving down that left-hand side
03:12little clip there from
03:13Paddinger
03:15and it's Berta Lask who talked about Rangers threat
03:18under Danny Roll from set pieces
03:21being much greater
03:22I'm surprised to see James Tavern here come over to take this
03:29as Rangers
03:30seek an early goal
03:32as they look to maintain their momentum
03:36which has been considerable of late
03:38Tavern here hoisting that one in
03:40but straight through the ward
03:42the Rangers have taken 22 points from the last 24
03:54goal is fraught at Hibs
03:58their only blemish
03:59here's Chikwani
04:06Mikey Moore trying to weave his way through
04:12he wanted a free kick but that's not forthcoming
04:16so Mikey Moore there
04:24and
04:24what's the collision there
04:27so congested isn't it
04:29in that central area
04:30first couple of minutes of the game
04:32three or four in there
04:40Manninger hurt
04:43this arm
04:43good footwork
04:47there from Watts
04:48there's been a goal at Celtic Park
04:58and it's gone to Celtic
05:00which won't surprise
05:01many
05:02Marcelo Serrachi
05:04has scored his first
05:04goal for them
05:06just back from injury
05:07against the bottom club
05:09Livingston
05:10and a goal
05:12for St Mirren
05:15who have a terrible record
05:16against Kilmarnock of late
05:17but Killian Phillips
05:18has given them
05:19an early lead
05:20the guys in the studio
05:28mentioning the way that
05:29Motherwell will play
05:30they'll try and provoke a press
05:31and Rangers
05:32are being aggressive with it
05:33Slattery onto that
05:43it's a lovely ship
05:47Callum Ward
05:48Stephen O'Donnell
05:50who has been playing
05:51in the heart of the defence
05:52back at right back
05:54tonight
05:54with Stephen Norsh
05:56returning from Celtic
05:57on deadline day
05:58O'Donnell's cross
05:59that might fall favourably
06:02here
06:02L'O'Donnell
06:03and his second attempt
06:05is over
06:06after
06:07Butland
06:08defied his first goal
06:09that's a really smart save
06:11from Jack Butland
06:12gotta say that initially
06:14came from the long ball
06:15out from
06:15Motherwell keeper
06:17Callum Ward
06:18they work it well
06:19and then the cross
06:19comes in
06:20L'O'Donnell
06:21goes quite safe
06:23with the side foot
06:24comes onto it
06:27Butland smart save
06:29and then
06:29L'O'Donnell can't quite get
06:31that left hip up
06:32high enough
06:32The house contributed
06:37five goals this season
06:39L'O'Donnell
06:40from left back
06:42including one
06:43on the opening weekend
06:44against
06:44Rangers here
06:46a late late
06:47equaliser
06:48Here's Diamande
06:51moving away from
06:54Slattery with ease
06:55trying to put
06:57Mikey Moore
06:57Nico Ruskan
06:59through
06:59he has done
07:00it is the perfect start
07:04for Rangers
07:05Nico Ruskan
07:08shows the way
07:09they knew they were in
07:11for a challenge here
07:12they've just accepted it
07:13it's brilliant
07:19from Diamande
07:20initially
07:23he lets the ball
07:24run across his body
07:25beautifully
07:26gotta say
07:26the recovery run
07:27from Slattery
07:28isn't impressive at all
07:30but Raskin
07:31really alert there
07:32just drives inside
07:34O'Donnell
07:36the timing of his run
07:37is exceptional
07:38the pace of the pass
07:39is exceptional
07:39has a little look up
07:40and then he slots it
07:41past Callum Ward
07:42it's a really composed finish
07:45just to start
07:47Rangers wanted
07:48there's the little look
07:51Ward commits himself
07:54and he finds that far corner
07:55a really tidy finish
08:01from Nico Ruskan
08:03the finish was excellent
08:08but so was the run
08:09that will do nicely
08:14for Rangers
08:15certainly knew they were in
08:22for a match
08:23tonight
08:23so that's the way
08:24to start it
08:25there's much
08:38when he say though
08:39they always felt
08:43he was getting
08:43tripped eventually
08:44Chukwani
08:47feeling hard
08:49done by
08:50you can see Raskin
08:52and Chukwani
08:53back
08:53I don't think he wins
08:55any of the ball
08:55Stephen Welsh
09:02Paul McGinn
09:04the furthest away
09:05targets here
09:06Slattery
09:17and Longiello
09:18over this
09:23Motherwell
09:25will have to
09:26find a different way
09:27it's quite a battle
09:39still in that
09:40midfield area
09:41Chica
09:42pops that away
09:43from Massimo
09:45and he said
09:45the side's got to pop the wall
09:47up early
09:48well
09:48Motherwell aren't used to
09:52coming from behind
09:54that might have been
09:55recent times
09:56yes they've
09:58finally conceded a goal
09:59here
10:00after going
10:01nine games
10:02without it conceding
10:04at Fir Park
10:05a typical
10:07they should let one in
10:08so early
10:09it's a free kick
10:15in a similar position
10:15to the last one
10:16but
10:16safe to say
10:18this one
10:18will be heading
10:19into the box
10:19you would think
10:20immediately
10:21Stephen Welsh
10:25amongst those
10:25showing interest
10:26Slattery
10:27it is
10:28who pops it in
10:29Stephen Welsh
10:30trying to get to that
10:32he didn't
10:34he made a bit of a mess
10:36of it didn't he
10:36Jack Butler
10:37didn't get the timing
10:39of his jump right
10:40here's Watt
10:57Jamiti now
11:00and Raskan is on the move
11:02again
11:02taken off his toes
11:07by
11:07Salinger
11:08here's Eli Just
11:20kicked out by
11:23Slattery
11:24Eli Just again
11:28Ibrahim Saeed
11:31that's another free kick
11:37and Rangers keep
11:37giving these away
11:38Niko Raskan saying
11:44really
11:44was there
11:45that much contact
11:46wasn't that much
11:51really
11:51for Slattery
11:52to go down
11:53but this is a chance
11:54well they're certainly
12:01in range of gold
12:02it's an extensive
12:05Rangers wall
12:07which
12:10Can Patlin is sorting out
12:11at the moment
12:11it's left for Longelo
12:30it's left for Longelo
12:34but the wall
12:35but the wall is effective
12:36cleared by Kusama
12:41nothing well
12:43trying to keep this going
12:44and I'm doing so successfully
12:46Stephen O'Donnell
12:47and I just
13:03out of the way
13:07it's always
13:07and
13:08I'm doing so
13:09that's why it's
13:09to look away by Chapwani
13:10Elliot Watts header
13:21Saeed
13:24Chokwani and Saeed Jocelyn
13:31That's what he's there for Chokwani
13:33So Rangers and Celtic both lead
13:38As they chase Hearts at the top
13:41Who left it late again in the Edinburgh Derby at Tyne Castle
13:44Certainly not at their best
13:46But got the job done
13:48Something that Rangers have been rather good at
13:50Many times this season
13:52Danny Merrill talking in the week about
13:58It's a team where they're not fearful
14:01Of other teams as they were earlier on in the season
14:05With much greater courage you can see with the press
14:08And the belief they have under Danny Roll at this moment in time
14:12Motherwell doing their best
14:25To come up with a response
14:28Slattery using Eli Joc
14:31Opened up for the shot then
14:32Just for a moment
14:34But it was blocked by Jiga
14:37Motherwell's extraordinary run of nine
14:43Successive clean sheets here
14:45Was the longest in their history
14:48And then along came Nico Raskan
14:50Another free kick given away
14:55All in very similar positions
14:57You'll see Slattery there
14:59As the yellow card comes out
15:02It's Diamandé wasn't it
15:04Just gets the other side of Diamandé
15:09Plays off that left-hand side Slattery
15:12But drips in really centrally
15:15As he did there
15:17Can Motherwell make something of this?
15:24Well, Eli Joc
15:26Might be his turn
15:28Slattery
15:32Usually the man
15:35And placing the ball
15:36Familiar story here
15:39For Jack Butlin
15:41As he sorts that ball out again
15:42It worked for him last time
15:44Motherwell, I've got a quick second go at this
15:52From a very similar position
15:54It is Slattery once more
15:56And it's pushed aside by
15:58Gotland
15:59Not bad from Slattery
16:02Up and over the wall
16:04Gets the dip
16:04Slattery again
16:09Elliot Watts
16:12That's a rare one
16:15From him this season
16:17This is the free kick from Slattery
16:24Good pace on it
16:25But
16:25Comfortable
16:26For Jack Butlin
16:28Mark has been home
16:37Sweet home
16:37For Motherwell
16:38Five
16:39Successive
16:40Wins
16:41In the premiership here
16:45And our Scottish Cup win too
16:47Certainly hearing Stephen McLean's whistle a lot
16:50In this opening quarter of an hour
16:53As Motherwell get yet another free kick
16:55And we're playing
16:57Once a word
16:58Chimiti
17:01Little and large there wasn't it
17:05Chimiti
17:07Absolutely wiped him out there
17:10He's saying he's got eyes on the ball
17:13And he's going for the ball
17:14Well
17:20That's a clear warning from Stephen McLean
17:23He was expecting a card
17:31Perhaps
17:33He really has done a phenomenal job at Motherwell
17:40Who's been a terrific watch
17:42But who have work to do already here
17:46Just
17:48Just out of reach
17:50Sort of wanted button to come
17:52And for a moment
17:53That's when he said he was
17:55Thinking he might be in
17:58Mikey Moore
18:04Advantage played
18:07Sarma
18:10Chikwani
18:13It actually opened up
18:17For the shot
18:17And it had 20 on it
18:19From the man who
18:20Did score at the weekend in the Cup
18:22Just drifting forward on that left hand side
18:26Chikwani
18:27Overlap from Magoma
18:30Just freed up a little bit of space to drive into
18:33Not far away
18:34Rangers have scored 13 goals in their last two matches
18:43Five against Kilmarnock
18:45Eight against Queen's Park
18:47And one already here
18:49There you go
18:54Rangers
18:55One up
18:55But
18:56Motherwell have played okay
18:58Haven't they
18:59In these early stages
19:00Dominated the ball
19:02More shots
19:04But
19:04That's not the stat that matters
19:06Knocked on by
19:14Just
19:15Go back
19:25The pressure from Ibrahim Saeed
19:28And he's in bother
19:30Eli Just takes over from Motherwell
19:31That's the third option
19:36But Faddinger
19:38Typically stepped in
19:40To rescue it
19:41But then gave away a free kick
19:42And
19:43I think we're going to hear that whistle
19:45In our sleep tonight
19:46At this rate
19:47They like those twirls
19:51Don't they
19:51The Motherwell players
19:52That's twice now
19:53Great feet from
19:54Faddinger
19:55Dear Mande
19:56Clearly foul
19:57Don't they rule the
20:06Manager of the month
20:08For
20:08January
20:09Just in the groove at the moment
20:16And in the groove here
20:17With an early opener
20:18McGinn
20:23Steers that away
20:24Knocked down by Just
20:26Chagwani was onto it
20:30And now
20:30McGilmer
20:31Chagwani
20:34Diamande
20:36Tavernier
20:38Arrows on the scene
20:39Callum Ward
20:41Will smother
20:41Before
20:41Chaniti
20:42Could get there
20:42That's a great ball
20:44In
20:44First time
20:44From Tavernier
20:45Chaniti
20:47Got to anticipate
20:48That better
20:49Ward's throw
20:51Releasing
20:53Saeed here
20:54Some run
20:58I thought
20:59It overrun it
21:00Good feet
21:03In the end
21:04To recover
21:04O'Donnell
21:19Looks a cute
21:20Little ball
21:21Into Just
21:22It's not bad either
21:24Welsh
21:27Watt
21:28It's cleared
21:31By Giga
21:32Mikey Moore
21:35Just took an early lead here
21:45On the opening weekend
21:46Of the season
21:47Motherwell left it late
21:49But did equalise
21:50In the 87th minute
21:51The Rangers were winners
21:56When the teams met
21:57At Ibrox
21:57Around Christmas
21:591-0
22:00Tello Asgard
22:02Quite an honest change
22:10Since the opening day
22:11Here
22:11What a job
22:15He's done
22:16Donny Roll
22:16To
22:16Get Rangers back
22:20In this title race
22:21In this title race
22:22Giga
22:35Just
22:37Just caught Kusama there
22:40Bongo's carrying on
22:44Motherwell indeed
22:45Have every right to
22:46Just not on the same
23:05Wavelength there
23:06Dear Mande
23:06Chimiti
23:08Chimiti had made
23:09The run in behind
23:10Here's Slattery
23:15And again
23:23Stephen Welsh
23:27On the way
23:35By Gasolna
23:36Push back
23:38Now Rangers
23:39Getting pinned in
23:40Can't get up
23:41The pitch
23:41At this moment
23:42In time
23:43Is what
23:51On yellow
23:54Oh don't know
24:02With a firm header
24:03But that will drop
24:04Kindly
24:04For that one
24:05He's not happy
24:22But it was a foul
24:23That's when he
24:24Clatters into Suter
24:25And Suter's getting
24:27His pass off
24:28Wasn't the best pass
24:31From Suter
24:31That's where the
24:32Frustration is
24:34But
24:34Yeah
24:36They call that
24:36The foul
24:37Mikko Raskan
24:46The first visiting
24:47Player to score
24:48At Fir
24:48Park
24:49Since Scott
24:49Arfield
24:50For Falkirk
24:51In the middle
24:52Of October
24:52There we go
24:58Last ten minutes
24:59Motherwell
25:01Really
25:02Pushing Rangers
25:04Back
25:05And dominating
25:06The ball
25:06Dominating
25:07The play
25:08But
25:08Jack Butler
25:10Not trouble
25:10Too much
25:11So far
25:12Here's Magoma
25:17Who has
25:18Competition
25:18In that
25:19Left back
25:19Roll
25:20Now
25:20After the
25:21Arrival
25:22Of Tur
25:22Romans
25:23Who
25:23Started
25:25The Scottish
25:25Cup
25:25Tie
25:26On Sunday
25:27Flicked on
25:35By
25:35Chimiti
25:36McGinn
25:39Sulted
25:40Out
25:40O'Donnell
25:46Towards
25:48Longer
25:49Low
25:49Point
25:51To
25:52Suttery
25:52But
25:52Just
25:53Wouldn't
25:53Come
25:54Down
25:54For
25:54Him
25:54Tavernier
26:00Will
26:00Take
26:00This
26:00Throw
26:01What
26:11Now
26:11For
26:11O'Donnell

26:20Watt
26:21Moved

26:24Missed

26:24Last
26:25Four
26:26Games
26:26With
26:26A
26:26Hamstring
26:27Injury
26:27He
26:31Has
26:31Been
26:32A
26:32Pivotal
26:33Player
26:33In
26:33Motherwell's
26:34Superb
26:36Season
26:37Yep
26:40One of many
26:41Really
26:42One of many
26:55One of many
26:56Niko Raskan covering there before Maswellise could sneak in.
27:12Well, had the pass been better from Slattery, right idea to go first time, it was just off with the pass.
27:20Real opportunity wasted for Motherwell there, just a bit more care on that pass.
27:26Maswellise would have been in, 1v1.
27:33Jiga across to deal with Maswellise this time, secure a throw.
27:43Here we go, James Tavernier, careless in possession.
27:47Slattery, you see, just off with the pass and Raskin had to be alert.
27:56This is quite a tussle too.
28:03Rocky Moore and Stephen O'Donnell.
28:08In towards Maswellise!
28:11In towards Maswellise!
28:14An open angle for him now.
28:20He's off the post and will not get a touch on that.
28:21Not like there might have been, but goal kicks will be given eventually.
28:25It's a great ball in behind from O'Donnell.
28:29Maswellise, just a little bit heavy with the touch.
28:32You can see Slattery drives into the bar.
28:37That's a good save from Butler.
28:38He stands big, comes off the post.
28:40Maswellise gets turned.
28:43Slattery furious, he didn't pull it back.
28:47Big save from Butler though.
28:50That's what Anise knows that Jack Butler intervened there.
28:53Looked like that wasn't the case.
28:55Some of us anyway.
28:58Motherwell giving it their best shot here in their quest for an equaliser.
29:05And I just...
29:23Saeed...
29:25Yet another pre-kick for another one in the first half has been full of them.
29:30Oh dear Mande again.
29:33He's been booked hasn't he?
29:36He's got to be careful I think, dear Mande.
29:43He actually takes a poor touch.
29:51It's away from us actually Souter with the challenge.
29:54Usual suspects over the free-kicks.
30:01Slattery and Just.
30:07Eli Just it is to send that in.
30:09And can they force it in?
30:11It's a magnificent clearance.
30:13O'Donnell was right on the line.
30:18That's unbelievable defending.
30:20What a ball it is.
30:21O'Donnell does the right thing.
30:23Goes back across.
30:24That's incredible from Raskin.
30:26It really is.
30:27But with McGinn and Welch all over him.
30:32He does tremendously well to keep that out of the back of the net.
30:38O'Donnell is coming in handy at both ends.
30:47O'Donnell is coming in handy at both ends.
30:48Rocco Raskin...
30:57O'Donnell don't worry about me to retreating
31:01but will take us for that.
31:06Oh boy.
31:07Oh boy!
31:12Oh boy!
31:15again under pressure
31:19clearance
31:21picked up by Tavernier
31:23Chimiti's down injured at the moment
31:24actually a really good spot from Tavernier
31:29the ball goes back to Callum Ward
31:33and he tries that big switch
31:35see him again
31:36just catches Chimiti with his
31:40little left finger
31:42it's been another goal
31:55Kilmarnock
31:56Greg Kilty who scored in the
31:58defeat to Rangers recently
32:00has got another one
32:01an equaliser against St Mirren
32:02and of course he
32:06was playing for until he rejoined
32:09Kilmarnock last summer
32:11just
32:20Jiga
32:21Chikwani
32:24he's been
32:25tripped by Saeed
32:27brilliant defending from Jiga
32:30just to step in
32:32this is us who pops it off to Chikwani
32:36so what can Rangers offer here
32:55Captain James Tavernier making the signals
33:11Mikey Moore
33:15the training ground routine
33:18that probably worked brilliantly on the training ground
33:21and it walks
33:34Slattery
33:39Longello
33:40pushed away by
33:43Dockland there
33:44could he have caught it
33:48I'm not so sure he could
33:53he did the right thing
33:54moving down
33:57fisted out
33:58throws
34:03come right into where
34:05come right into where it might hurt
34:05Rangers
34:07O'Donnell
34:09with a swirler
34:11Longello
34:12going to be a goal kick
34:16despite his claims
34:19I actually think he'll be happy
34:29in the way that his team have
34:30performed
34:32his first 33 minutes
34:34he's been the better football team
34:36going to be
34:37shaking his head
34:39as
34:39now they're behind
34:41another early goal for Rangers
34:48who have scored the most goals
34:49in the first 15 minutes
34:50of matches
34:51in the
34:51Premiership
34:52nine now
34:53Eli just giving
34:54Masu Nisei
34:56something to chase
34:56and fair play to Jiga
34:57he was excellent
34:58brilliant defending
35:05from Jiga
35:06as soon as
35:07just plays that ball
35:08you think
35:08Masu Nisei
35:11he is rapid
35:12but
35:13Jiga kept up with him
35:16quick turnaround
35:20at Rugby Park
35:21Kilmanac are now in front
35:22Tyrese John
35:23Jules in first half
35:24stoppage time there
35:25Kilmanac won their last
35:30home game against Aberdeen
35:31and they're in a
35:32good place for back to back
35:33victories
35:35of course after that
35:43win over Aberdeen
35:45they were thrashed
35:455-1 by
35:46Rangers
35:47Chimidi
35:51he's got the chance here
35:52and a second goal
35:54and that was blocked
35:56by O'Donnell
35:57after
35:58Karen Ward defied him
36:00initially
36:00that's a smart save from Ward
36:02one wrong ball
36:04again
36:05he heads it into the back
36:07of Mikey Mooreshead
36:08I don't know what Welch is
36:09doing there
36:09what he sees
36:10and Chimidi
36:11what a big chance
36:13stood up well though
36:1610 minutes to half time
36:20Rangers answering back a bit now
36:21D'Amanda
36:32Chiquani
36:36Roskam the goal scorer
36:41Tavernier
36:50I think Ward turns away
36:59he's got the chance of a quick
37:27free kick there
37:27some of us
37:31are
37:31not
37:33budging out of the way
37:34here's Elliot Watt

39:12Stephen Welsh
39:16all alone from Celtic
39:19in the hunt for a goal
39:21against Rangers
39:21that would be another story
39:31in this season
39:32of stories
39:32O'Donnell
39:34doesn't really get much more height on that
39:35but he's come back to him
39:36again
39:37slattery
39:40went low
39:41what much were it on those crosses
39:48or corners
39:48boom again
40:14super Scottish Sunday
40:28lies ahead
40:28Kilmarnock Celtic
40:29first up from one o'clock
40:31on Sky Sports Football
40:32and then a massive match
40:33at Ibrox
40:34it's Rangers
40:35against the leaders hearts
40:37I mean
40:38cannot wait for Sunday
40:40Neil McCann's got Kilmarnock
40:44going a little bit as well
40:45isn't he
40:45that's not an easy trip
40:46for Celtic
40:47there's a bit to say about that
40:57as Stephen McLean
40:57blows his whistle
40:59for yet another Motherwell free kick
41:00this is why
41:01Faringa
41:15over to Otto
41:16O'Donnell
41:17Rocky Moore
41:20sticking with him
41:22or trying to anyway
41:23he's retrieved by McGinn
41:37playing the 550th club match
41:43of his career
41:44today
41:45the amount of days
41:55being taken out
41:56and it was
41:57I think Motherwell
41:58unhappy
41:59because
41:59what had made
42:00the forward run
42:01initially
42:03I thought there was a little
42:06tug on his shirt
42:08but
42:08I mean
42:09that's a foul
42:09to the far side
42:36James Tavernier
42:40over the free kick
42:41same towards Suta
42:46comes back to Diamande
42:48Jiga
42:50oh
42:52Kusama
42:53didn't really connect
42:54and everyone's
42:56falling over each other
42:57Kusama Ward
42:58scoops it up
42:59it's like up anyway
43:02but Civiti seems in
43:03some agony here
43:06it's going to be another free kick
43:11would you believe
43:12first can
43:12the offender this time
43:14and it's going to be
43:19a yellow card
43:20just after he spoke
43:22to the ref
43:23regarding the last incident
43:24yeah
43:25Faringa gets the wrong side of him
43:27he's going to get a card for that
43:28and this is the earlier one
43:29Chimiti who's still down
43:31in the Motherwell
43:32penalty box
43:35referee has had to deal with that card
43:44there's actually no treatment yet
43:49for Chimiti
43:50Chimiti
43:52has got back to his feet
43:59some ironic applause
44:05from the Motherwell fans
44:06meantime it's a Motherwell free kick
44:13we've said that a lot
44:14in this first half
44:15chance for Slattery
44:18or just
44:18to
44:19float this in
44:21again
44:21Welsh O'Donnell
44:35all in there
44:38Slattery pops it in
44:40away by Suter
44:43from O'Golo
44:45and
44:45now McGinn
44:46he was trying to swivel as well
44:49steady on Paul
44:50yeah that was slightly optimistic
44:53from
44:53McGinn
44:56trying to drive John Suter there
44:59on the
44:59on the byline
45:00Chimiti still limping
45:05as it stands
45:07and there will be just one minute
45:08added on to this
45:09first half
45:10here's Diomande
45:29which was made of Motherwell's clean sheet record here at third part but Rangers haven't
45:37intently been giving much away lately either just one goal conceded in the last five premiership outings
45:43they have kept their advantage here given to them early on by Nico Raskan
45:52Saeed
45:56he's on to it again
45:59it's an excellent block
46:01those bodies tumble here there and everywhere
46:03Rangers have got three men on the ground
46:06and now the free kick's been given
46:09as the ball heads up in the net
46:12well that was
46:15quite a sequence
46:16yeah it wasn't
46:20you can see from the reaction of the Motherwell players
46:22they feel really
46:23well done by that
46:25Jiga makes a bit of a mess of that side
46:29shot block from Suter
46:30and Suter
46:34basically sits on the ball
46:36Motherwell players trying to win it off him
46:39seems slightly harsh I have to say
46:43let's have a look
46:46don't see what
46:51side is doing wrong
46:55Motherwell players appealing for a handball there
46:58that would have been
46:59very very harsh
47:01there's a proper scrap that
47:06well that is that as far as the first half is concerned
47:16Nico Raskan with an early goal for Rangers
47:19but Motherwell responded quite well to that
47:23however they haven't been able to find a way to goal
47:27and at half time in this massive match
47:30in the Scottish Premiership at Firfark
47:32it's Motherwell 0
47:33Rangers 1
47:34the
