Eintracht Frankfurt v Glasgow Rangers live updates - Frankfurt and Rangers draw 1-1 and go to penalties....

The majority of the noise is being made by the Germans.

All the Frankfurt fans are wearing white baseball caps. Who on earth thought that was a good idea?

Lots of endeavour, obviously, but it's scrappy - neither side has found their rhythm.

Kamara loses possession and Toure finds Kamada, who scythes into the box, but Lundstram gets "in and around him" so that doesn't quite have the ball under control when the time comes to shoot, nor the angle so to do, so McGregor comes out to smother.

But Tavernier is there and clears.

Lundstram avoided a booking. I'm surprised, but in a good way - it was a 50/50 and Rode ducked.

I'dlike to say we'll get a load of added time, but I'm expecting the usual two minutes.

Rode is up, his head swathed in blue and white bandages.

My guess is they're just stopping the bleeding, I think he'll be fine to go on - it wasn't a heavy, concussion-inducing contact.

Lundstram lifts a foot to poke a bouncing ball away from Rode, scraping face with studs. There's claret, and Rode stays down, but I don't think it's a serious offence - Rode ducks into the challenge, and the ball was there to be won. The contact was minimal, it was just with the sharp part.

He turns beautifully, runs at the Frankfurt defence and finds Aribo, who uses the outside of his foot to move the ball inside his man, only to slip when he'd planned to shoot. Nice from Rangers, but.

Nothing comes of it, a long ball easily headed down by Toure.

Kostic, who's an excellent player, tries a cross, it goes beyond the back post, and when it comes back, Bassey sticks a head in the road.

Not the back three they've been using. I wonder if Van Bronckhorst thinks Frankfurt aren't as good going forward as Dortmund and Leipzig, so he wants his team to dictate rather than soak up.

What a moment. All the talk, all the preparation, all gone.

The players take a knee and Frankfurt accidentally kick-off. Whoops. All black lives matter, people.

The captains toss and Tavernier takes a while to decide his team will stay as they are. It's not like he's had any time to think about it.

The ground is expletive jumping. The players greet one another, and it - is - TIME!

HERE COME THE TEAMS!

In particular, I'm inspired by Ally McCoist. His love for football, Rangers and life is such a beautiful thing.

It's nearly time! I cannot wait for this - again, I think it's the contagious excitement of the fans and players. My team were in last season's final and I can't say I wasn't up for it, but I'd seen them win it in 2017 and also seen them win two European Cups, so the levels weren't the same. Other hand, these are buzzing for the greatest time of their life, and it's impossible not to find that moving.
