Ajax vs. Rangers live score, updates, highlights & lineups as ... (Sporting News)

Follow the action live as Ajax start their Champions League campaign against Rangers, who are back in the group stage after a 12-year absence.

Rangers lost the derby against Celtic 4-0 on Saturday, then watched their arch-rivals in Glasgow suffer a 3-0 mauling by reigning Champions League winners Real Madrid on Tuesday. Univision places select matches across its TV networks (Univision, TUDN, UniMas, and Galavision) and also makes all matches from the group stage on available via its ViX streaming platform. 90 mins from kickoff: Ajax won all three of their games here as part of a perfect Champions League group stage last season. Then Rangers enter the Ajax box for the first time, also failing to make the advance meaningful. Ally McCoist, the manager who was in charge of Rangers when they were on their way back to the Scottish Premiership between 2011 and 2014, sounds a little misty-eyed. 5 mins from kickoff: The players have emerged from the tunnel. Ajax win a corner down the left. A huge roar goes up as the action starts in this glorious stadium. Terrific to watch — Rangers can only watch and chase. Ajax are yet to find their range but have had the better opportunities. Tadic tries to loft a ball onto the run of Bergwijn from the right. Their opponents need a seismic turnaround to earn anything from this game!

Rangers outclassed by Ajax on chastening Champions League return (The Guardian)

Goals from Edson Álvarez, Steven Berghuis, Mohammed Kudus and Steven Bergwijn gave Ajax an emphatic 4-0 win over a dismal Rangers in Amsterdam.

Rangers lack of defiance pointed to Van Bronckhorst, strangely, being unable to rouse his troops despite this being a glamour occasion against one of the continent’s A-list names. Kudus passed to Berghuis and his effort beat McLaughlin via a ricochet off Sands – a midfielder asked to fill in at centre-back. The Ajax team were as vibrant as Johan Cruyff Arena had been when transformed into the flag-waving cauldron that greeted Rangers’ ending of a 12-year absence from this stage of the competition. If there was a number to rate the invention of their opponents then zero would not have been unfair on Rangers, whose manager, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, seemed to have instructed them to sit as far back as possible and hope that they could somehow conjure a goal. Had Van Bronckhorst given his charges a roasting at the interval? [Rangers](https://www.theguardian.com/football/rangers) go from here in a Group A that also features Napoli and Liverpool may not be pretty.

Edson Alvarez, Steven Berghuis, Mohammed Kudus and Steven Bergwijn were on target for the Dutch champions as they shrugged off the loss of a number of key players in the transfer window.

Detailed Rangers player ratings as wretched displays lead to Ajax ... (The Rangers Review)

Jon McLaughlin: Big call by the manager to keep faith in his goalkeeper. No chance of getting to Alvarez' header for the opening goal.

Was on the receiving end of a crunching challenge that amazingly went unpunished in the first half but that aside Rensch had him in his back pocket. Moved back to form a back five in the second half as Rangers looked to limit the damage. Guilty of poor decision making at various points and a lack of urgency in a defensive sense to stem the constant flow of Ajax attacks. The Finn has been a standout performer for Rangers many times in Europe but he was more of a liability tonight. Was far more comfortable as Rangers moved to a back five at the start of the second half. Exposed time after time in the first half but looked far more steady as Rangers reinforced the backline after the break.
