on this near side. Kasama takes it
0:08
quickly pulling it back to Mcoma
0:11
and to Cornelius level the edge of the
0:14
center circle in his own half forward to
0:15
Mur inside the Celtic half forced back
0:17
into it by Engles and now it's with
0:19
Sudar. Sudar eyes up the pitch ahead of
0:22
him. It's a long drifting right foot
0:23
ball which is headed away by Rston.
0:26
Rascan jumps up the trusty loose ball.
0:28
McGregor's onto it. That's only half
0:30
away. Miovski lays it back to Rascan.
0:32
Now it's Tavern. Now it's Gasama. He's
0:34
at the edge of the box. Shoots, blocked,
0:37
scheming for handball. Nick Walsh is a
0:39
long hard look at it.
0:42
And he's given the penalty to Rangers.
0:46
Rangers have a penalty for Han ball.
0:50
And what a chance the T men have
0:53
to wipe out the Celtic advantage which
0:56
they've had since the 25th minute. It's
0:58
a hand ball by Rollston. He was on the
1:01
deck blocking the shot from Gasama and
1:04
Rangers have an almighty chance to come
1:06
off the floor here.
1:09
Yeah, I mean it's so sharp from Gasami.
1:11
Shifts it, takes out Trusty Rosson's
1:14
fallen. Ah, it's a definite penalty. I
1:16
mean, he's on the way down. Uses his
1:18
elbow in to keep out. I don't think this
1:20
one will be overturned.
1:21
No, I don't think so either. I think I
1:23
think his his arm is towards the ball.
1:26
hits him on the elbow.
1:30
Big chance for Rangers to get back into
1:32
it.
1:34
They worked hard in the second half. We
1:36
talked about this period when when Zelig
1:38
were back in control of the game and
1:41
then again changes.
1:42
Check. They're checking it. I mean,
1:44
Anthony Rollson's already on a booking.
1:46
The penalty stands.
1:50
No second yellow for Rston. Certainly
1:52
not a deliberate hand ball,
1:55
but what he's presented is a huge chance
1:59
for Rangers here
2:01
approaching the final 10 minutes and
2:03
James Tavern has the ball in his hand.
2:06
I can understand why they're asking him
2:08
to be sent off a booking because he
2:10
throws himself and his elbows there and
2:12
he uses it. The Rangers players
2:14
especially are asking is they're all
2:16
over the ref but he's not having any
2:18
know just a penalty given so many times
2:21
in the past in his long Rangers career
2:23
James Tavern has saved them and they've
2:26
been in a hole and they're in a hole
2:27
here down to 10 men trailing the holders
2:30
1 nil 80 minutes on the clock righted
2:33
penalty from James Tavern against Casper
2:35
Schmeichel here he goes the Rangers
2:37
captain scores
2:40
brilliant from Taanir right footed
2:42
bottom left away from the grasp of the
2:44
Dane and the 10 men have come off the
2:49
canvas to level the semifinal. It is
2:52
Celtic one. 10 man Rangers won. Game on
2:56
at Hampton.
2:58
It's expertly taken and you need your
3:00
captain to stand up and under the
3:02
pressure just dispatch it. And he goes,
3:06
he goes that way a lot. He just whips
3:07
it, runs up, whips it, and Michael goes
3:10
the right way, but the power beats him.
3:17
Well, there you go.
3:20
He just felt given it was just the one
3:23
goal of a lead that it wasn't done,
3:27
Billy. And and so it's proven to be
3:31
[Applause]
3:34
bedum bedum going on behind us. Uh the
3:37
Rangers supporters behind us here and uh
3:41
you just sensed just one goal behind
3:45
that Rangers always had an opportunity
3:47
here to force the issue. What did we say
3:49
all along? Silk and scrappy second half
3:51
not keep the balls well. They need a 10
3:53
minute spell where they kept it really
3:54
well. But I also said if they don't get
3:57
that second goal they're going to feel
3:59
the pressure and Rangers Gama with the
4:01
pace. said that at half time I mean and
4:04
manufactures the space to get a shot and
4:07
you could say that you know it's a it's
4:09
definite penalty but they want rston
4:12
sent off as well because he didn't have
4:14
to throw himself at it he didn't have to
4:16
elbow it some people say it's
4:17
intentional but if you don't throw
4:19
yourself then you have no chance of
4:20
elbowing it but anyway they get the
4:22
penalty to get the leveler and Sil still
4:24
have a living on the park
4:26
yeah and they deserve it ranges in the
4:28
second half because they put down 10 men
4:30
could controlled the game much much
4:32
better for a longer period and they
4:35
haven't and it got very very scar
4:36
allowed Rangers to get back into it and
4:39
give them confidence to say that he can
4:40
still get something out of this game.
4:41
Just a reminder that VAR cannot
4:43
intervene with second yellow cards.
4:46
They could have had a they would have
4:48
had a look at the trusty one in the
4:49
first half as M comes forward for
4:51
Rangers and now he's found Miovski left
4:53
hand side of the Celtic box.
4:55
Rangers looking to turn this semi
