Rangers manager Philippe Clement: "I think it was a close tie but I am proud of what my players showed. We played a better game on the ball than what we showed in Lisbon. You need to take the moments and we didn't take ours enough. Benfica wanted to start by pressing us like they did in Lisbon but we were much better on the ball today. Rangers matched Benfica in Lisbon and did so again in front of a raucous home crowd until conceding the decider. From there, they just could not find a response. Substitutes were unable to make an impact. Perhaps Philippe Clement's side ran out of steam given the demands of their schedule and injuries they have endured. In Benfica, they met a side who have real quality. That, eventually, showed and decided who would progress. The one question mark centres on why Rangers persisted in leaving themselves so exposed when they had a corner kick. Time and again they were almost caught and then eventually they were.

Philippe Clement says his Rangers side are "growing week by week" as they moved to within five points of Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic with a comfortable comeback win over Dundee despite playing the second half with 10 men. Amadou Bakayoko's early close-range finish was cancelled out within 15 minutes by a stunning Cyriel Dessers strike. A James Tavernier penalty and a thundering Abdallah Sima header had Rangers comfortable before Jose Cifuentes was sent off for a stamp. The packed Ibrox stands endured some nervous moments after the break, but seventh-placed Dundee rarely looked like avoiding a 16th consecutive defeat at Ibrox. It means Rangers head into their Europa League decider against Real Betis, then the Viaplay Cup final against Aberdeen, on the back of 13 unbeaten games, 12 under new manager Philippe Clement. We need to get more players fit and we need to continue to work, but if the mentality stays like this then we will take more points.

Three late goals gave Rangers a comfortable win over Livingston and their first three Scottish Premiership points of the campaign. Sam Lammers struck on the rebound early on after Todd Cantwell's cross had been pushed away by Shamal George. Andrew Shinnie twice tested goalkeeper Jack Butland as Livingston pressed for parity after the break. But Danilo's tidy header from a Borna Barisic cross, Abdallah Sima's close-range finish and Kieran Dowell's stunning strike meant four players in total got their first Rangers goals. Lammers came into the game having missed an excellent chance to put Rangers three up during Wednesday's win over Servette but atoned for that with his opener and Jose Cifuentes thought he too had a first Rangers goal at a corner. The Ecuadorian went for a header, got the break of the ball and slammed home but VAR ruled the effort out for handball against the midfielder. Cyriel Dessers headed over in the first half and had an effort deflected over in the second, with Danilo drawing a save from Shamal George in another Rangers attack. The two Shinnie chances - a deflected shot at a corner and another low effort from the left - gave Livi hope and home boss Michael Beale sent on Rabbi Matondo and Abdallah Sima for Lammers and Dessers, meaning Danilo moved to a more familiar central striking role. Matondo set up Sima, who was denied by George and then Danilo got his moment with a downward header.
