Before the excitement at Ibrox this evening, Rangers' U19s were in action as they faced off against Liverpool in the UEFA Youth League. The Light Blues were looking to pick up their second victory in the group after a home win over Napoli in Glasgow last month.
The young Gers hosted the Reds at Firhill this afternoon but were unable to keep them at bay, with the clash finishing 4-3. It was a perfect start for Liverpool who went ahead through Oakley Cannonier after just eight minutes of play. But David McCallum's young Rangers side fought back to even things up just two minutes later. It was Charlie Lindsay who stepped up to score from the spot after the home side were awarded an early penalty.
Liverpool hit back quickly though, with Melkamu Frauendorf taking the lead back for his side in the 18th minute. Rangers looked for an equaliser for the second time as the first 45 continued as a Robbie Ure header drifted narrowly wide. But it was Liverpool who scored again, with Cannonier finding the net for the second time.
