That is all we have time for on Tribe as it ends all square here thanks to a late equaliser from Rangers. I have been Elliot Thompson and thank you for joining me. Make sure you stick with us on Tribe as the women's Olympics semi-final between Brazil and Spain is at half-time!
For Dynamo Kiev their next game will be the first of their league season before the second leg which is at Hampden Park rather than the Ibrox Stadium due to construction work. That is because they have been allowed a rest to prepare for the game just like they did for the first leg. Rangers meanwhile have a home game against Motherwell as they look to get their first win of this new season.
Dynamo Kiev seemed destined for an impressive victory thanks to a goal from former West Ham man Yarmolenko in the first half. His strike came thanks to a Vanat cross after Yilmaz had made an error in possession. After that moment they threatened with a couple of long-distance errors from Shaparenko and some counter-attack. However, Butland didn't have too much to do with Kiev's chances coming from mostly Rangers' errors. They certainly coped well at the back with Popov playing well but their concentration deserted them in the dying seconds. So they will be up against it with the fans not on their side next week.
THE GAME ENDS ALL SQUARE WITH A LAST GASP EQUALISER! It seemed that Dynamo Kiev were going to take a one-goal lead to Scotland next week however Rangers had different ideas. Nothing seemed to quite click going forward for Rangers today with McCausland hitting the post and Dessers not having too many chances. That was until the last few seconds when he got on the end of a cross from Cerny to finish emphatically. The away fans were buzzing as now all the momentum is with them going into the second leg. Overall a one-all draw seemed about right in this one as both sides threatened but also at times looked vulnerable. There is no doubt who will be the happier after that dramatic ending.
90+4'
RANGERS GRAB AN EQUALISER IN THE DYING SECONDS! Tavernier gets the ball out of the corner with a clearance. It breaks loose to Jefte who switches the play to Cerny. His touch is poor and drags him well wide. However, he puts in a wicked delivery on his left foot. Dessers is there at the near post to stick it into the back of the net. What drama!

Dowell clips a pass into Tavernier on the right wing. He loses it so Vivcharenko brings it forward. Cerny works well to run back with him and get a tackle in. Kiev have a throw which they go into the corner with. They are just playing out the final minutes here.

A long ball is aimed at Dessers. Popov wins the header but Dessers tries to control it with a high foot. So the referee shows him a yellow card.
