    Time:90'
    • Rangers
    • Kilmarnock
    • 90+2' There's the final whistle. Rangers go abck to the top of the SPL. They have 25 points from 11 games, while Celtic have 24 from 11 games.
    • 89' Lafferty turns sharply and shoots from 15 yards, but it's straight at Brown, and that could be the last chance of the game.
    • 86' Mehdi Taouil blasts a shot well over the bar for the visitors.
    • 82' Kevin Thomson hits the post for Rangers!! His shot across goal comes back off the upright, and the Kilmarnock defence desperately hack clear.
    • 70' Incredible goal-line clearance as Lafferty's header is cleared off the line by the Kilmarnock defence! The 'keeper came flapping, and got nowhere.
    • 68' A bit of ping-pong in the Kilmarnock area following a Rangers corner, but the visitors eventually hack the ball clear. Meanwhile, Nach Novo is on for Steven Naismith.
    • 63' Killie put togetger a neat move on the right, and swing a dangerous ball in toward Kyle...who is just beaten in the air by David Weir.
    • 58' Wayward effort from Davis from outside the area. Rangers are continuing to press.
    • 55' Sasa Papac flashes a dangerous shot across the face of goal from the left side of the area! Brown didn't have that one covered.
    • 48' Rangers begin the second half the way they ended the first -pouring forward in numbers at every opportunity.
    • 46' We're underway in the second half at Ibrox.
    • 45' There's the half-time whistle, and Rangers are cruising. They lead 3-0 at Ibrox.
    • 43' Miller turns and shoots on the edge of the area, and Brown is forced to tip it round for a corner...which Kilmarnock clear. Miller was allowed far too much space 25 yards from goal by the Kilmarnock defence.
    • 40' An entertaining, open game at Ibrox. Rangers have undoubtedly been the better side, though Killie have had a couple of chances, most notably through Kyle early on. Rangers have been clinical, though.
    • 35' GOAL! Rangers have their third, and it's Steven Whittaker! It was great work down the right from Boyd, he got to the by-line, pulled it back perfectly for Whittaker, and although his initial shot cannoned back off a defender, he was no hand to tap home the rebound. The Killie defence are in disarray here.
    • 31' McGregor now pulls off a fantastic acrobatic save to deny Kyle! The striker has unleashed a scorcher from otuside the area, but McGregor is in fine fettle this afternoon.
    • 25' Great flick on for Lee McCulloch...it falls perfectly for Kenny Miller, and HE FIRES HOME HIS FIFTH GOAL OF THE SEASON! Killie in real trouble now.
    • 22' Brown denies Naismith again! Plenaty of chances being created here at Ibrox, and it must be said that the majority of them are being created by Rangers.
    • 17' Now Steven Naismith has been sent through...he's one on one with Mark Brown...but Naismith misses! What a chance!
    • 14' Manuel Pascali fires in a shot for Killie, but McGregor has it covered again.
    • 10' Rangers have their second!! Wait - no! It's been ruled offside! Kris Boyd thought he had his second goal in just two minutes, but the linesman's flag is up.
    • 8' Kevin Thomson sent Boyd through against his former club, and the big striker made no mistake, tucking the ball past the onrushing Mark Brown.
    • 7' Now we do have the opening goal as Kris Boyd puts Rangers into the lead!
    • 4' Kevin Kyle gets in a header for Kilmarnock, but Allan McGregor pulls off an excellent save! That was almost the opener!
    • 1' We're underway at Ibrox!
    • 14:45 Rangers team to face Kilmarnock: McGregor, Whittaker, Weir, Wilson, Papac, Davis, McCulloch, Thomson, Naismith, Boyd, Miller. Subs: Alexander, Novo, Smith, Lafferty, Fleck, Ness, Little.
    • 14:45 Kilmarnock team to face Rangers: Mark Brown, James Fowler, Frazer Wright, Ryan O'Leary, Garry Hay, Gavin Skelton, Craig Bryson, Manuel Pascali, Jamie Hamill, Kevin Kyle, David Fernandez. Subs: Bell, Russell, Taouil, Old, Owens, Flannigan, Kelly.
