00:00And Nathan Patterson on for Leon Baligan for Rangers
00:15Since
00:17Leverkusen's victory here almost a year ago Rangers have won every home game bar
00:24The one against Benfica
00:27And Morelos slips in Patterson
00:37Patterson breaches the Antwerp defense. He's in on goal and what a start to the second half for Rangers
00:45I
00:52Think he's on safety the player on the far side Steven. This is how we speak that goes on to the fast action
01:00You've got to say what a substitution by Steven Gerrard
01:04He probably bought him on because Baligan struggled offensively, but offensively great energy great reading to the game
01:12He's had his critics he's made the headlines for all the wrong reasons
01:18Wow, what a way to get off your mark as a Rangers player
01:23It's a wonderful finish great appetite and the smile from Steven Gerrard says it all
01:32What an unbelievable impact he's made Steven two minutes into the second half
01:41Well
01:43Absolutely incredible all these goals are checked on VAR that one
01:49absolutely, okay by the officials and
01:53Rangers lead on the night again and Nathan Patterson with his first goal for the club
02:01Straight in on goal within 30 seconds of coming on
02:05And
02:10Two weeks on from a
02:12Stage when you know, some were suggesting that it was the end of his Rangers career. Yeah, we said last week
02:18He would be sat at home
02:20Contemplating these actions at the weekend prior to that Rory and here we see him tonight at the big stage
02:25He's come up with a massive goal for Steven Gerrard
02:2816
02:34Seconds it took him the Rangers number 16 to score his first touch bearing down on goal
02:42What a moment that is
02:51You have to say it's been a recurring theme over both legs of balls in behind the back line
02:58Of Royal Antwerp again
03:00This is a great run a good picket, but people running ahead of the ball running beyond the game Antwerp can't cope
03:11Do tights Patterson
03:16That well to the clearance
03:28To
03:29Pongla who is the one who's moved into the defensive line from the midfield to
03:35accommodate boy up
03:37Just imagine that Nathan Patterson has been sitting in the house for 10 days
03:41Concerned about his Rangers career just desperate for an opportunity
03:44To show what he can do and you then have to go and take your chance if it comes along and he did
03:51The high hopes for Patterson come through the Academy
03:55A
03:58Quality in that finish there
04:00Well, he's had the biggest scare of his life and then to face the manager in his office coming back to training just this week
04:09Five players welcome back
04:14Probably more out of necessity that Steven Gerrard has had to show a bit of faith in those players by putting them on the bench
04:25Patterson now looking to repay that faith
04:31But Steven Gerrard is short
04:34He has an actual replacement for Tavania
04:38Bassey on the other side
04:41For Barisic
04:43Yeah, the concern would have been his lack of fitness for you know, not being involved around
04:47The squad for 10 days. You can do individual stuff in and around the house. It wasn't allowed out so
04:52So I'm in the game of this magnitude
04:56Terrific response and great mentality from young Nathan Patterson. It's easy to go on and feel sorry for yourself, but
05:03Absolutely delivered first touch
05:06incredible start to the second half
05:17What
05:22The marshal Lukaku, it's got a different opponent now
05:32No, Haji Patterson ahead of him keen to get involved once more
05:45This person blocked off
05:48The last touch comes off Haji
05:51Yeah, positive again from young Patterson coming down that right-hand side
06:01Good ball for Frankie Farquhar-Couturin to lose a goal so soon in the second half
06:08Well the side now need four
06:13Four two would see them through, four three would see this one go to extra time
06:17Rangers looking for a third through Morelos. He's out-muscled his man. It's Alfredo Morelos, but
06:23Ondla gets back to
06:26Get the final touch, but the flag was up in any case
06:32Pause the play from Adelaide Park, penetrating pass just looks as if he strayed offside
06:39I like to see that from midfielder Steven, they're looking to play forward on the front foot. I think it was a correct decision
06:45I'll have to say about Alfredo Morelos, he's looked as hungry tonight all over the game in and out of possession in and around goal
06:52I've saw him for a long time Alex
06:55Yeah, as I said earlier Steven, I think it's six goals in his last nine games
07:00Rangers are going to need that in the run-in
07:05For me he is the star striker at the club, the number one. When he's on form, he's on song, he brings so much to the table
07:14You must smile a lot in the house
07:17They tell me he's a cheery chap about the training ground, full of fun
07:23He doesn't do that on the pitch. I don't mind, I play that way myself
07:32Al-Zayy trying to turn Paterson
07:35Come on, come on, come on, come on
07:42Take his eye off it, and then Haji to close in
07:46Yeah considering the way Antwerp finished that first half
07:50They will be desperate to get back out to the second half, get on that front foot, try and
07:55Get that second goal, which would have been crucial for them
07:58It's been a hammer blow conceding that goal just after halftime, and they just have to regroup
08:05Ancel Zayy, Rafaelo
08:11Now Lukaku
08:14Boya
08:18Lukaku again, and Lemarchand, Boya
08:22Lemarchand goes for the return
08:26Defender
08:30Boya now invites De Lappe forward
08:36Jürgens, closed down well by Davies, and Buta
08:41Strat
08:48Well read by Paterson
08:51Does well to hold off Frank Boya
08:56Yeah, he showed good strength there, Boya, a powerful guy, just gets his body in the right area
09:05For the free kick
09:06It's very good reading of the game, isn't it? He anticipates that ball's coming into the feet of Boya, he steps in front, draws the foul
09:17Ancel Zayy, no surprise that he's involved with the referee, a little bit temperamental shall we say
09:29Kamara into Haji, perfectly weighted, lovely turn by the Romanian too, and now Morelos
09:35Has passed Onguat, he's got Kent in the middle, what a wonderful goal that is
09:40Brilliant from Rangers
09:42And Ryan Kent gets the foul
09:45And Rangers can start to dream of the last 16 now, that was absolutely outstanding, Royal Antwerp cut to pieces
09:56Yeah, he returns a compliment, Alfredo Morelos, great turn by Haji, releases Morelos down the right-hand side
10:03Tremendous play, squares it, great movement by Kent
10:08What a finish
10:10So many good things about that goal, the way to pass from Glen Kamara, the turn, the vision from Haji, the 1v1 ability
10:18Of Alfredo Morelos, just to square up Onguat, and then his awareness, the awareness of Alfredo Morelos because Kent peels to the penalty spot
10:27That is as good a piece of football as you will see in the Europa League tonight, that really is top class
10:34I think they lost that edge for a few weeks, Rangers, in the final third, but tonight everything has came together
10:41And that is wonderful, all-round team goal
10:46And it takes Ryan Kent to 10 for the season
10:51He's scored two in his previous 29 games, now three in his last three
10:56Including what, at the time, over in Belgium last week, the goal that made it 3-0 was absolutely crucial
11:08Yeah, that was Rangers at their very, very best
11:12Yeah, Kent's track record this year, assists, goals, he's going the right way
11:16Steven Gerrard was looking for more on the back of last season, he's into double figures, a dozen assists
11:23So much more as well, Steven, for Meek
11:27Just look at the weight of this pass, you talk about midfield players playing forward, he absolutely rips that in
11:34But Hadji's awareness, and then Morelos, you know, that's him at his best, facing defenders up
11:39He can't cope, and how many times in the past would Alfredo Morelos try to shoot from there, Alex?
11:45Yeah, you have to say...
11:46He just lifts his head and his vision
11:47Steven, his awareness is terrific, because the weight of the pass as well
11:51Lamkelzee is in here, collision between Goldson and McGregor, and Didier Lamkelzee has got one back
12:00All of a sudden, it now reads 7-5 on aggregate
12:05And Goldson has remained down, more concern for Rangers
12:13Steven Gerrard said last week that they were too easy to play against, they give up too many cheap goals
12:18Connor Goldson just gets caught a little bit square, it's a great run from Lamkelzee
12:24He said he would make a difference by being in the team, great pick-out of game by Rafailov
12:29He's sharp, he's quick, and just when it looked as if that was game over, it's game back on
12:35Yeah, it's a trophy ball by Rafailov
12:39Lamkelzee, round McGregor, gives him a lifeline
12:48It's the tie that refuses to be put to bed
12:54Rangers still know that they have a cushion
12:58Royal Antwerp need four on the night, if they are to force extra time
13:08Here goes Barisic, good strength from him
13:10He's a nice little ball in behind here, shows some good strength, trying to play around the face to Morelos
13:26He's been quite quiet tonight in an attacking sense, hasn't he?
13:29You know, he's normally up and down that left-hand side
13:32There is a penalty check in VAR
13:37And here, our official, Pavel Gil, having a look at that
13:43The check is now over, however, and we're ready for the corner
13:49Borna Barisic to deliver with his left foot
14:00Paterson, the last man back, he's been hounded by a couple of Antwerp players
14:03But he remained calm and composed
14:08This was the doubt, wasn't it?
14:11It does hit the left hand of Ongar, it is by his side, it's not an unnatural position
14:16And it's the reason why VAR has said no penalty
14:21I don't think it was outwith his silhouette, Steven
14:24Probably the right call
14:26A minute and eight seconds from Royal Antwerp kicking off to them getting their second goal of the night
14:40Le Marchand is going to be yellow-carded for his antics there
14:46Do you know what? He wasn't happy initially with the challenge of Hadji
14:50He thought he had caught him and the initial ball was in the air
14:52Then he got frustrated and he went fouled
14:56Glenn came out initially and then just smashed the ball towards the Rangers' dugout, I think
15:08On the warpath there, Maxime Le Marchand gets a yellow card for his troubles
15:22Yannis Hadji takes, up front Boya, just to skim that one away
15:42A good delivery into the box, Boya manages to get his head on it first
15:46We thought last Thursday we wouldn't see that like again
15:52Here we are, 3-2 with about 30 minutes left
15:56It's been an intriguing time, great attack and play, poor defendant
16:00Penalties, red cards, great goals, everything really touched on it last week
16:04This week's just been as good
16:06Kent to try one, that one just bobbled as he went to strike it
16:133 goals in the opening 13 minutes of this second half
16:18Who knows what may happen in the final half an hour
16:43Oh, Antoine, still believing that they have a chance
16:54The Belgians are playing in their first knockout European game
16:58Since a 5-2 defeat at St James' Park in the 1994-95 season
17:04Lamkel Ze just had a little grab of Alan McGregor's shirt
17:10Just a talking to
17:18Yellow card possibly, you know if it happens in the middle of the pitch
17:21In the midfield, so when he gives him a tug then you would think it was a yellow card
17:25It's something to do with Steven, it's not as if there's a big break on
17:31I think for Rangers now Alex, it's just about managing the game
17:34Don't put the game at risk anymore, be efficient
17:37You spoke about both fillbacks as well, you know it's about picking and choosing
17:41There's no need to bomb forward at every opportunity
17:53Rangers 13 goals in the group stages was a club record for the club
17:58They've upped that now to 20
18:01Since they've gone into the knockout stage
18:03Impressive stuff but
18:05Conceding 5 will be a concern
18:10Jürgens looks for the return
18:16Later on this evening it's Manchester United
18:20Against Real Sociedad
18:23Phone a lot from the first leg, that's on just now in 2-8
18:28Also a little closer in the game between Leicester City and Slavia Prague
18:320-0 from the first leg and that's on ESPN HD
18:40So that's been a good battle between Conor Goulton and Nam-Kelzé
18:44They came together, they've battled
18:47So that's been a good battle between Conor Goulton and Nam-Kelzé
18:51They came together, they've battled
18:59There goes Pangea, it's Lemarchand with the challenge he was just booked a couple of minutes ago
19:05That was rather cynical from me, he just takes him out
19:08Takes him out
19:14You look at many more of them that's for sure
19:32You would think the longer the game goes that
19:34Antwerp will have to gamble a little bit more
19:37Expose themselves a bit, that's when Rangers then have to try and capitalise
19:41With the pace of Kent, the pace of Morelos
19:44And the trickery of Hadji
19:59And there goes Strat
20:02And it's over the top of Lukaku
20:04Lukaku, interestingly in the first legs in the round of 32
20:08There were only three home wins
20:11Granada, surprise winners against Napoli
20:13Young boys in Olympiacos but I suspect it may well have to do with the seedings
20:18Eight away wins and 59 goals
20:22These two, contributing to plenty of goals
20:26There goes
20:33Lukaku
20:35Back it comes to Boya
20:39Lemarchand
20:42Lukaku
20:44Over Strat
20:46Looks for that searching ball out to Aurelio Bouta
20:50Gerkins
20:52Into a corner kick for Antwerp
20:56It's a terrific switch of play isn't it
20:58Versstraat didn't play last week
21:00He's managing to find a little bit of space in midfield
21:03Rangers dropping off
21:04A wee bit, he's picking passes off
21:06One thing you can say about Antwerp
21:08Rangers haven't managed to shake them off
21:13Rafailov
21:15It was 3-2 against Standard Liege when Rangers played against Belgium
21:18Opposition in the group stages
21:22Here's Kent now
21:24Hadji
21:25There's a hole down there
21:26Well, play on
21:28This is the Polish referee
21:33Rafailov
21:35It's the direct approach which pulls
21:38Lampkowski
21:40Into the channel
21:41Couldn't keep it in play
21:45You don't want him picking his head up
21:47Rafailov
21:48Tremendous ability
21:49Ranger passing has caused Rangers
21:52Problems in these two matches
21:55I just wonder when Steven Gerrard will look to the bench again
21:59Hannes Hadji looked a little bit jaded
22:01Trying to get up the pitch
22:02Joe Riebel can go forward one potentially
22:04Scott Arfield coming on
22:07Just to bring fresh impetus
22:17Arfield's out there at the moment
22:18Alongside Itting
22:22Itting
22:30Angla
22:33Buta
22:34But it's with Riebel
22:36Scott Arfield
22:37Is being readied for his involvement with
22:41Three quarters of the game
22:43Played
22:47I would imagine it would be Yannis Hadji
22:49Whether Scott Arfield is a direct replacement
22:52Or whether Joe Riebel we spoke about
22:53Can play
22:55In that front three
22:56And Arfield just backing up in midfield
22:58I would expect Arfield to be the midfielder, Steven
23:02As you say there
23:03Probably push
23:04A Riebel forward one
23:10Strat
23:13Scott Landau just had to watch the bounce of the ball
23:17Davis
23:18To take Yannis Hadji off
23:23Chasing that one down
23:24It's Angla
23:25Angla
23:51Buta
23:53One kills eight
23:54Rafailov
23:57And Lukaku
23:58Now the flag does go up
24:04I think it's Rafailov
24:07Who's offside
24:09It's a ridiculous rule, Steven
24:11You know, waiting for it to all play out
24:13Just put your flag up
24:14He's not allowed to
24:15I think you have to wait
24:16No, I understand
24:17Until he finishes on a goal
24:18I'm just saying it's, you know, the rules
24:19Ridiculous
24:25I think he's just said to Scott Arfield
24:27Just do what Nathan Patterson done
24:29As soon as you go on
24:30Within 16 seconds
24:31Put the game to bed
24:39Deluxe header
24:41Now a Riebel
24:42Comes to Morelos
24:44He's not quite sticking to ranges at the moment
24:55A strap went
24:56Down and
24:58It's certainly in pain
24:59It's a
25:00Yellow card that
25:02Has flashed
25:03Then in the way
25:04Of
25:05Glenn Kamara
25:06And he just
25:07Stands in
25:08Atop his foot
25:17So with 20 minutes left to play
25:19It's
25:20For Scott Arfield to
25:22Come on and
25:23Impact the game as he replaces Yanis Hadji
25:28Joe Riebel just trotting towards his right hand side
25:30He will play
25:32Where Yanis Hadji was playing
25:34Just think because Antwerp will commit more men forward
25:37The running power of Riebel
25:38The running power of Scott Arfield
25:40Could get ranges in behind
25:46I think Scott Arfield's experience as well Steven
25:48As you see here
25:49You're absolutely right about Joe Riebel
25:53Be able to take the ball for a wander
25:55But Arfield gives you that experience
25:57Just sitting in there
25:59Picking up the balls
26:00Playing forward
26:05Now Riebel has been fouled all the way there
26:07By Lukaku
26:08Likewise Morelos there
26:10Who had Martin Omler
26:11All over his back
26:14Great striker play Steven
26:15Just holds it in
26:17Initiates the contact
26:19Gives his team a free kick
26:21That's where he's at his best Alex
26:23He wants defenders to come tight
26:24Omler is used to playing as a centre midfield player
26:27He's not used to playing against the quality
26:29Of Alfredo Morelos
26:31Gets far too tight
26:33It's a free kick all day long
26:35Well Martin Omler was booked as well
26:38So he will be out of Royal Antwerp's next European game
26:42Rangers will be hoping that that
26:44Is next season
26:46Getting ready to make a double change but
26:48There's
26:49Defensive work for Frankie Vercoutten's side to do
26:52Before that
26:54Sent in by Barisic
26:55De Wolff
26:57Comes out to punch
26:59And he's still down
27:00Kent plays on
27:02Fires well over the top
27:05I don't think he was aware
27:07Of what was going on in the middle of the penalty area
27:10With the goalkeeper down injured
27:15I think De Wolff is wounded
27:17His own player actually is
27:20Boyer
27:21Catches him in the midriff
27:22Doesn't he with
27:24His right forearm
27:26Ryan Kent didn't know
27:27The ball came to him
27:29His only focus
27:30Is to try and create a little bit of space for himself
27:34The referee
27:35The referee stopped the play
27:36While Ryan Kent was in possession of the ball
27:38So
27:39By the letter of the law
27:40The drop ball should go straight back to Ryan Kent
27:42Yeah it was positive goalkeeping by De Wolff
27:44We were questioning them earlier on in the game
27:47Decisive there
27:57Getting ready to make this
27:59Double change
28:02Big strike is coming on Rory
28:04Mabinaty
28:12Jordan Lukaku
28:13And Peter Gerkins
28:16Who are coming off for
28:18Royal Antwerp
28:22Just wants to
28:24Make sure that
28:26Nortwyn De Wolff
28:27Is okay to continue
28:28Because
28:30Alireza
28:31Birenbaan who
28:32Started the last two games
28:33Went off injured against Rangers
28:35And then
28:36Again
28:37Went off injured
28:38And then
28:39Went off injured
28:40Against Rangers
28:41And then
28:42Against St Truden
28:43At the weekend
28:45So he's obviously not
28:47Fully fit
28:48But Ernst Rundtjian
28:50Chavonne
28:51As well
28:52On the bench
28:57Yeah
28:58I'm guessing that's goodwill
28:59That he's given it back to the goalkeeper
29:01De Wolff because
29:02Ryan Kent was in possession of the ball
29:03So it's a
29:05Strange decision
29:10Paterson
29:11Arribo
29:13Well Lukaku
29:15Had a hold of Joe Arribo
29:16That whole time
29:17And it will be
29:18John Lukaku's
29:20Final act
29:22He and
29:23Gerkins
29:25Coming off
29:26And there's
29:27Felipe Mabinaty
29:29Who
29:30Has a towering
29:31Centre forward
29:32Scored that goal
29:34And
29:35And

31:31And
31:32And
31:33And
31:34And
31:35Delatte.
31:40Goldstone across to cover.
31:43Forward from Barisic.
31:49It's good reading of the game, isn't it?
31:51Alfredo Morelos gets himself back into his own half, he's onside.
31:56He cannot just about get away with it,
31:58I wasn't too sure if he fancied a kick in the face,
32:00but he got away with it.
32:02Here's Le Marchand.
32:05Alain Calzet.
32:07Raphailov.
32:31Boy up.
32:35It's the 1-2.
32:37And then charges into the tackle with Kamara.
32:40Down goes Arribo and it breaks for Kent.
32:45Davis, well forward.
32:48Morelos just ahead of him, it's Alfredo Morelos, was he clipped?
32:52Well, the referee has given the penalty kick.
32:57And now Rangers have a real opportunity to put this to bed.
33:01It's a penalty all day long.
33:07Listen, they haven't learned by their mistakes,
33:09you can't go close to Alfredo Morelos,
33:11he wants to use his body,
33:13he wants you to come tight and he can spin round.
33:16He's done it in all three centre halves.
33:18Le Marchand, very naive defending, but terrific play.
33:23Terrific body shape by Alfredo Morelos.
33:26They are just doing a VAR check to make sure
33:30that it was inside the penalty area.
33:38It looked to me as if he'd caught the wrong side.
33:42Lazy leg, clear penalty.
33:49It was inside.
33:52Just getting the final signal.
33:55The check is over.
33:57Borna Barisic.
34:01Looks to compose himself.
34:04It's a hat-trick of penalties in the tie for Borna Barisic.
34:09And surely now, surely now Rangers have done enough
34:13to put their place in the last 16 of the Europa League.
34:21Tremendous penalty, Steven, he just wraps his foot round it.
34:24Gives it, goalkeeper, no chance.
34:27Extends the lead for Steven Gerrard's guys to 4-2.
34:32I just wonder what he changed,
34:33because there's two penalties last Thursday.
34:35He went the exact same corner.
34:37And the weekend as well.
34:39And he missed.
34:41Is it inside the box?
34:43Yeah, he catches his right foot.
34:44It's half a yard inside, but really poor defending.
34:48We did say that if they attacked, they could leave space.
34:52Morelos would have to capitalise Kent.
34:54And now Joe Arribo.
34:56I have to say, his all-round performance tonight,
34:58Alfredo Morelos, has been top drawer.
35:01Yeah, you look over the two legs,
35:02see the impact last week, Steven, as well.
35:05Handing four goals.
35:07And tonight he's been absolutely tremendous.
35:13Yeah, you see the kick in his right ankle.
35:20Well, again, it was Slomonski with the...
35:22touch there that gave away the penalty kick.
35:26A player that had already been booked.
35:318-5 with ten minutes to go.
35:33Can Steven Gerrard relax from his hit?
35:35First one to ten, Rory.
35:52One, two, three.
35:56Raphaelov...
35:58takes the corner kick for Royal Antwerp.
36:02As...
36:03Bogany, Zungu and Scott Wright are being ready to come on, but...
36:08the Pep Rangers would...
36:11have to see out this corner first.
36:17Comes from Raphaelov.
36:20And...
36:22make those changes, you would think.
36:25An incredible tie this has been.
36:32So, Bogany, Zungu...
36:34like Nathan Patterson...
36:37back after his...
36:39breach of Covid regulations.
36:44And the South African will...
36:46get the final eight and a bit minutes.
36:49And the...
36:51change for...
36:54Royal Antwerp also...
36:56sees Koji...
36:58Miyoshi...
36:59come on for Martin Okula.
37:07Steven Davis...
37:09who heads off for Zungu.
37:12And...
37:14Ryan Kent...
37:15Ryan Kent...
37:17is off for...
37:18Scott Wright.
37:24Yeah, Steven Davis had his efficient best tonight.
37:27Ryan Kent has impacted the game, he's carried a threat.
37:32Sparkling form.
37:34That will delight the Rangers manager.
37:38Here is Wright, who makes his...
37:40European Rangers debut.
37:43As Morelos...
37:45was caught in the back of the head by the challenge.
37:48He's absolutely terrorised of Morelos.
37:50They can't get a grip of him, Steven.
37:52They're continuously fouling him.
37:59Here's Morelos.
38:01So determined.
38:04A reboot.
38:05Miyoshi.
38:07And now Bernati.
38:09Down goes Antoma, and will get the free kick.
38:18There's a lot of movement here.
38:20I don't know if there's much contact there.
38:25Cedric Iten...
38:27also to...
38:29come off the bench for Rangers shortly.
38:34Yeah, you'd imagine that substitution would be for...
38:37Alfredo Morelos.
38:38I think when he's in this form...
38:40that he's been tonight...
38:42at times he's unplayable.
38:44Because defenders don't know where to go tight and foul him.
38:46If they step off, he turns and faces them up.
38:48Just look at his assist for the Ryan Kent goal.
38:51So in this form...
38:52defenders can't cope.
39:00Morelos.
39:01Bernati.
39:04There is...
39:05Alfredo Morelos...
39:06who has had such an impact...
39:09over this tie.
39:13And he makes way...
39:15for Cedric Iten.
39:19Alec, you said he was involved in all four goals last week.
39:21Yeah.
39:22He's been involved in all four tonight as well.
39:24He scored the first one, didn't he?
39:25Yep.
39:26Great play by Ryan Kent.
39:28He then...
39:29played a wonderful little pass in for Nathan Patterson...
39:31for the second one.
39:32And then...
39:33the Ryan Kent one was all about Morelos...
39:35taking on his opponent.
39:36And then of course he wins the penalty for the fourth one.
39:38So...
39:39involved in all eight goals...
39:40tells you all you need to know about Alfredo Morelos.
39:43Yeah, when he's in that form, Steve...
39:44and he's really difficult to play against.
39:49A real handful.
39:55One kills eight.
39:57Did you get an assist for penalties, one?
39:59It's just having an impact...
40:00on the game.
40:03Seven assists and a goal over the tie.
40:05It's not bad going.
40:09I think overall...
40:10this season...
40:11his overall game, Stephen...
40:12has improved dramatically.
40:13You know, last year he scores goal after goal after goal...
40:15but he's...
40:16you know, when you're at number nine...
40:17you're trying to bring people into play.
40:19I think he's gone on to another level.
40:21I think there's goals there throughout the course of his career.
40:23So I think he'll...
40:24he'll do well.
40:25I think he'll do well.
40:26I think he'll do well.
40:27I think there's goals there throughout the course of his career.
40:28So I think he'll...
40:29if he can add the goals...
40:30this season as well as the all-round play...
40:32what a player you have in your hands.
40:37Lamar shot.
40:38One kills eight.
40:41Goldson.
40:42Too tight to him.
40:52Put up.
40:53Jason Bolle and Hellander were stretching.
40:58And it's...
40:59Boyer who's now dropped into the...
41:01defence.
41:06Borna Barisic.
41:13Hellander across.
41:14Sliced that one.
41:21Yeah, it will certainly give Rangers encouragement...
41:23to get into the next round.
41:24Scoring eight goals and a tie.
41:27However, the downside...
41:29the goals have conceded five and a tie will be...
41:31a disappointment will encourage other teams...
41:33once they get through.
41:34Because the...
41:35the level steps up.
41:37They'll have to be more efficient.
41:39Mean defensively, but...
41:41not too sure...
41:43how many teams will be wanting to draw Rangers in that.
41:47I think at the off, Steven...
41:48if you'd have said to Steven Gerrard...
41:49you'll get to the last 16.
41:51You're into the...
41:52I don't think it's a seeded tomorrow either.
41:54I think there's a midday tomorrow.
41:57The draw.
42:03Well, you can watch all the...
42:05highlights of the last 32 ties...
42:07and why wouldn't you want to...
42:09again...
42:10in the UEFA Europa League...
42:11tonight from 10.30 on 2HD...
42:14and...
42:15you're absolutely spot on, Alex.
42:17Tomorrow...
42:18from midday in neon...
42:20it is the draw for the...
42:22round of 16...
42:23which Rangers will be in.
42:28Some potential...
42:30appetising ties, isn't there?
42:31Tottenham Hotspur 3 last night...
42:33Manchester United...
42:34you can imagine we'll get through...
42:35Ajax...
42:36potentially in there...
42:37AC Milan...
42:39some big names...
42:40and Steven Gerrard would love his players...
42:41to go and test themselves...
42:43against...
42:44real...
42:45creme de la creme in the Europa League.
42:47Yeah, we were here last year as well...
42:48Rory...
42:49Braga...
42:50the place was absolutely rocking...
42:52it's such a shame that the fans cannot be here...
42:54but...
42:55I'm sure they'll be enjoying it at home.
42:58These two games against...
42:59Royal Antwerp would have been...
43:01incredible with full houses.
43:07Cedric Eten...
43:11The last 16 was the marker set by...
43:13Steven Gerrard's side last season...
43:16they're going to match that...
43:18with a chance of...
43:19going...
43:20further.
43:23Scott Wright wasn't happy at all...
43:24he felt as if...
43:25Absolutely.
43:26a foul off had...
43:27threw an elbow towards his face...
43:31I think he just catched him...
43:32I think he's...
43:33he's not really aware of where...
43:35Scott Wright's head is...
43:37I think he was a little bit unfortunate.
43:41The lap forwards and...
43:42Goulson was...
43:43waiting for...
43:44Alan McGregor to come for that one.
43:49Connor Goulson had to deal with that...
43:50he wasn't sure.
43:52The ball was out...
43:53just a bit of a...
43:54lack of communication.
44:02And a foul off.
44:04And we'll take the...
44:05corner kick.
44:07And up goes...
44:08Ravanhati.
44:14Now a rebound.
44:19Into the...
44:20into the...
44:2190th minute of the tie.
44:23I understand there will be...
44:24three extra...
44:26to come.
44:30Ravanhati.
44:35And Poma.
44:46Seven goals in the first leg.
44:48Six tonight...
44:4913 over the tie.
44:51Kept us busy.
44:53Kept us entertained...
44:54that's for sure.
44:56I think the overriding emotion...
44:57for Steven Gerrard...
44:58tonight will be Alex...
45:00the attack and threat...
45:01that Rangers carried.
45:02You know...
45:03previously in the league...
45:04the last four or five weeks...
45:05maybe hadn't been where they want to be.
45:07Yeah, I think that's a fair comment...
45:08Steven.
45:09The front three initially...
45:10in that early part of the game...
45:11was tremendous.
45:13Three more minutes...
45:14how many goals can we get...
45:15in stoppage time?
45:17Told you...
45:18it's the first to ten.
45:26He'll be delighted though...
45:27Steven Gerrard...
45:28you know the way his team's...
45:29went about this tie.
45:31Obviously the defensive...
45:32side of things...
45:33he'd be looking for an improvement...
45:34but he's scored eight goals...
45:35at this level.
45:37There's some going.
45:38Now for Wright...
45:40he's got a bit of space...
45:41to drive into...
45:42might have a run at...
45:43Le Marchand.
45:45Wright's...
45:46and he goes down...
45:47and it's another penalty kick...
45:49for Rangers.
45:50Scott Wright now...
45:51having an impact in Europe...
45:53in Rangers blue.
45:55So positive, Steven.
45:57Gets it out of his feet...
45:58drives at the back...
45:59back lane...
46:00and he's got it...
46:01and he's got it...
46:02and he's got it...
46:03and he's got it...
46:04and he's got it...
46:05and he's got it...
46:06and he's got it...
46:07back lane...
46:08clearly a penalty there...
46:10just catches the back of his leg...
46:13easy decision for the referee to make.
46:15Yeah, it was great intent...
46:16from Scott Wright...
46:17the minute he picked the ball up...
46:18the only thing in his mind...
46:19was to drive at the opponent.
46:21It was a lovely little chop back...
46:23and Borna Barasic...
46:24has handed over the penalty responsibility...
46:26to Cedric Etten.
46:31Cedric Etten...
46:34as Rangers look...
46:35for their...
46:36fifth...
46:38of the night.
46:46Cedric Etten...
46:47delivers the Royal Blush.
46:50Rangers...
46:52well on their way...
46:54and the adventure goes on.
46:57Yeah, straight down the middle...
46:58the pace has done the goalkeeper...
47:00he'll do it...
47:01and the world of good as well...
47:04and on the score sheet...
47:05Steven...
47:069-5 in aggregate...
47:07who'd have guessed?
47:08I'll tell you all about the spirit...
47:09within the club, doesn't he?
47:10Within the team on the pitch...
47:11they hand the ball over to Cedric Etten...
47:13Barasic could easily have taken it...
47:16but there's no doubt about it...
47:17he's got it...
47:18he's got it...
47:19he's got it...
47:20he's got it...
47:21he's got it...
47:22he's got it...
47:23he's got it...
47:24he's got it...
47:25and there's no doubt about it...
47:26the two of the Rangers...
47:27have just been simply too good...
47:29for the Royal Antsworth...
47:30they've had their moments...
47:31with spells in the games...
47:32but...
47:33the quality and the attack in third...
47:35for Rangers has just been...
47:36far too strong...
47:37for Clackney Van Couter inside...
47:41Another boost for...
47:42Scotland's coefficient...
47:43two victories...
47:44and two more games at least...
47:46to come for...
47:47Rangers.
47:50Yeah, Scotland...
47:51had a big part to play in that...
47:53Cedric Etten getting the goal...
47:54getting the goal as well as you say Steven it's so important to keep everyone happy
48:03Patterson
48:06and Arfield forward
48:11Boyle come under pressure here from right but
48:17and there is the full-time whistle it's almost a shame that it has to come to an end it's been a
48:22thrilling couple of games between Rangers and Royal Antwerp in the end though Rangers too
48:29strong for their opponents Nathan Patterson marks his comeback with his first goal for the club and
48:35it was a vital one but Alfredo Morelos what a role he played he got the opening goal he assisted
48:43others Borna Barisic again on the scoresheet another penalty his third of the tie Rangers
48:50got nine in total five this evening and it's Rangers who will head into tomorrow's draw for
48:58the UEFA Europa League last 16 full-time score this evening Rangers 5 Royal Antwerp 2 and an
49:04aggregate Rangers progress by nine goals
