Referee Jasper Vergoote blows his whistle, and Rangers get the match underway at Estadio do Dragao.

Gassama has put Rangers ahead at Esadio do Dragao!! Brilliant work from Curtis, who played an inch-perfect ball from the right flank. Gassama heads it past Costa to put the visitors ahead. A really poor start from the Dragons.

Porto have found the equaliser through Mora!! Brilliant link-up play from the hosts after Mora wins posession at the halfway line. Mora plays it to Varela, who tees up Gomes. The latter cuts inside and then plays it across for Mora to have a shot from close range, giving the goalkeeper no chance.

Porto have taken the lead for the first time, with Moura finding the back of the net. Tavernier fails to clear a simple ball forward by Bednarek, and the ball hits his body to fall loose right inf ront of goal. Moura, in the right place at the right time, pokes it past Butland.

It goes bad to worse for Rangers as Fernandez's own goal increases the lead for the home side. Gomes played a terrific cross from the right looking for Bednarek. However, it hits Fernandez at the near post and goes past Butland.

The referee gets the second half underway at Estadio do Dragao. One change at the break by Rangers, with Souttar replacing Meghoma.

A much improved performance from Rangers in the second half. The visitors have had almost 60% of the ball and five shots, but they have not been able to test Costa as much as they would have liked. 15 more minutes for them to get something out of this contest.
