RANGERS 1-1 SPURS
Dejan Kulusevski scored a late equaliser to deny Rangers a famous win in the UEFA Europa League, as they were held to a 1-1 draw in a pulsating game with Spurs.
The hosts, who have a big cup final against Celtic at the weekend, were the better side in the first half, but found Fraser Forster in their way as he made solid saves from Nedim Bajrami and Václav Černý.
It did not take the Ibrox side long to find their feet after the break though, as Hamza Igamane netted for the fifth time in as many games when he converted in the 47th minute.
That raised the roof at Ibrox, but try as they might, Philippe Clement’s side could not find a second, which proved costly as Kulusevski equalised late on.
There was more to come, with Cyriel Dessers forcing Forster into one stunning save and having a goal ruled out for offside as the spoils were shared.

ROUND-UP OF TONIGHT'S ACTION
Here's a look at what else has happened across Europe tonight
21:56
MORE FROM KULUSEVSKI
"It's always important to score, but we've got to start winning games. We haven't won in a couple of weeks. We have to win on Sunday. Everybody needs to do a little bit more than we're doing right now."
21:56
"WE DIDN'T PLAY WELL ENOUGH"
Kulusevski is speaking to TNT Sports post match: "I think Rangers played very well. We struggled a bit. 1-1, it is what it is. We didn't play well enough to win the game."
21:54
HOW THE TABLE LOOKS
With two games left in the league phase, both teams have 11 points thanks to three wins, two draws and a defeat. It means neither have really boosted their hopes of automatic qualification for the knock-out phase, but Rangers are above Spurs on goal difference and still - at the time of writing - cling onto eighth place.

FULL-TIME: RANGERS 1-1 SPURS
There goes the full-time whistle. What a match. Absolutely sensational, end-to-end. Rangers probably deserved to win it, but the spoils are shared, as Kulusevski's goal cancels out Igamane's opener.
90+1'
WE ARE INTO ADDED TIME
An extra three minutes will be played! Can either side find a winner?
90'
BUTLAND SAVES FROM SOLANKE
Lovely build-up play from Spurs, with Maddison clipping a cross to Solanke, but his header lacks the power to trouble Butland
87'
GOAL RULED OUT
Dessers has had quite the impact, and he does have the ball in the back of the net, but he was a couple of yards offside
86'
WHAT. A. SAVE.
That is outstanding by Forster! Dessers looks destined to score. The goal is gaping. But Forster, quick off his line, narrows on the angle and blocks the shot away!
83'
VITAL BLOCK DENIES SOLANKE
The ball is dropping to the striker near the penalty spot. He swings a leg at it, but Tavernier makes a huge block

MOMENTUM CHANGE
That goal has, of course, had a huge impact on the game. It has silenced Ibrox, but Rangers are suddenly looking very tired too

GOAL! RANGERS 1-1 SPURS (Dejan Kulusevski)
Out of nowhere, Spurs have levelled. It's the sub who gets it, tucking beautifully into the far bottom corner with a low strike that was out of reach of Butland. We're all square!
