RESULTS
That's all we have for tonight. Thank you for joining us!
What a chaotic night of Europa League action, with all three ties finely poised ahead of next week.
FULL TIME! RANGERS 0-0 ATHLETIC CLUB
The 10-men have held on, and remain alive in the competition.
A brilliant effort.
Rangers are pushing for a late, late winner here...
FULL TIME! LYON 2-2 MANCHESTER UNITED
That was the near-final kick of the game.
Onana has cost United, and the tie is perfectly set up for Old Trafford.
GOAL! LYON 2-2 MANCHESTER UNITED
With almost the final kick of the game, Rayan Cherki has levelled things with a lovely finish after Onana makes a mess of a shot.
What a terrible night for the keeper.
A more casual five minutes in Lyon.
12 minutes added on at Ibrox!
FULL TIME! TOTTENHAM 1-1 FRANKFURT
Spurs are left to rue several near-misses and Frankfurt will be absolutely thrilled to come away with a draw.
It's finely poised ahead of next week.
GOAL! LYON 1-2 MANCHESTER UNITED
A massive, massive goal.
Joshua Zirkzee has come off the bench to put United ahead with a fine header from Fernandes' cross.
There's just two minutes left.
Lacazette fires wide with a good chance from just inside the box.
Kobbie Mainoo and Victor Lindelof are on for Garnacho and Harry Maguire.
PENALTY SAVED!
Alex Berenguer sees his spot kick saved by a diving Liam Kelly, who only came in for Jack Butland tonight.
Incredible!
PENALTY!
The Athletic goal is ruled out for handball but are awarded a penalty.
BIG CHANCE!
Dorgu whips a fine ball in from the left which Garnacho connects with.
It's a difficult angle, but Perri turns it away.
Handbags galore between the United and Lyon players after Mount holds off a few challenges.
The midfielder and Nicolas Tagliafico are given yellows after all of it.
GOAL! RANGERS 0-1 ATHLETIC CLUB
The 10 men's resistance is finally broken, and it's the Athletic substitute Alex Berenguer who has scored.
Mason Mount is on for Manuel Ugarte, with Fernandes dropping in alongside Casemiro.
Can he win it for United?
Garnacho just has to do better.
United break on the counter, but the Argentinian makes a mess of his final ball, overhitting it for Fernandes.
Will we see a winner in any of our three games?
Under 20 minutes to go.
Zirkzee is on for Højlund.
Another tough, tough night for the Dane.
BIG CHANCE!
Corentin Tolisso cuts through United's defence, with Noussair Mazraoui slipping and sliding, but his tame effort goes straight at Onana.
Spurs are very much the better team, but Frankfurt are still level.
Might the hosts regret not taking their chances?
WHAT A CHANCE!
Maroan Sannadi misses an absolute sitter from close range for Athletic.
Rangers living very dangerously.
Yoro plays a lovely one-two before striking the ball just wide.
The French defender has shown up tonight.
Brilliant skill from Giorgi Mikautadze sets up Lacazette for a chance, but he gets it all wrong with his volley.
Let off for United.
SO CLOSE!
Lucas Bergvall hits a screamer towards the top corner but it bounces back off the bar.
Son Heung-min then comes ever so close, before Rodrigo Bentancur hits the woodwork again.
Alexandre Lacazette is coming on.
The Lyon icon scored once in eight games against United while at Arsenal.
Højlund had just 10 touches and three passes in the first 45.
He did have two chances, neither of which really troubled Perri in the Lyon goal.
The Dane could really do with a goal tonight, and soon with Joshua Zirkzee likely to come on soon.
And we're back under way in our three games.
Half-time in Glasgow and Lyon.
GOAL! LYON 1-1 MANCHESTER UNITED
What a huge goal right on the stroke of half-time.
Perri knocks back Fernandes' free-kick, Manuel Ugarte volleys it back in and Leny Yoro heads it in.
First goal for the club for the former Lens man.
The Williams brothers almost team up to give Athletic a late first-half lead.
Rangers just about get the ball away.
Big let off for Spurs, as Ekitiké can't connect properly with Arthur Theate's ball.
And that's the end of a fine first half in North London.
It's been another night to forget for the Cameroonian, who has made a terrible habit of howlers in Europe for United.
United have now gone behind 24 times this season.
That's more than Southampton.
Rangers have handled going to 10 men quite well, but there's a long way to go.
Onana said United were "way better" than Lyon.
The old Jamie Vardy saying of "chat sh*t, get banged" comes to mind.
GOAL! TOTTENHAM 1-1 FRANKFURT
Just what they needed, and what a delightful goal.
Maddison cuts the ball in from the left, and Pedro Porro brilliantly flicks the ball into the net.
GOAL! LYON 1-0 MANCHESTER UNITED
As the script would have it, it's a howler from Onana, who lets a hanging free-kick past him.
Thiago Almada went past everyone, and then the United keeper.
A penny for Matić's thoughts.
Spurs have responded well to that early blow, attacking in numbers and making several half chances.
Casemiro then hits an audacious bicycle kick at Lucas Perri from the resulting corner.
Suppose he is Brazilian.
Bruno Fernandes fires over from a pull back from Diogo Dalot, and a deflection takes it away from goal.
Just as I said it, Rasmus Højlund has a great chance to at least work the keeper.
His fellow Dane, Patrick Dorgu, plays him in from the left, but he makes a mess of his finish, shanking it wide.
Very few chances so far in Lyon, with United looking quite solid.
They are the only unbeaten side in the Europa League, as well as the Champions League, which only adds to the bizarreness of their season.
RED CARD FOR RANGERS!
If Barry Ferguson's task wasn't hard enough, his side are now down to 10.
Robin Propper's yellow card for taking down Iñaki Williams has been upgraded to a red card after a VAR check.
It could be a long night.
Lyon have a lot of former Premier League names in their squad, with Alexandre Lacazette on the bench alongside Matić.
Another former Arsenal player, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, starts, as does Jordan Veretout, who had a rather forgettable spell at Aston Villa.
Moussa Niakhaté completes the lot, who scored just once in 37 appearances for Nottingham Forest.
GOAL! TOTTENHAM 0-1 FRANKFURT
A horror start for Spurs as Hugo Ekitiké gives the Germans the lead with a brilliant finish from outside the box.
Frankfurt broke well on the counter after James Maddison lost the ball, and the French forward gave Guglielmo Vicario no chance.
We have a result from one first-leg clash already, with Bodø/Glimt stunning Lazio with a 2-0 win.
The Norwegian side's fairytale journey looks like continuing to the semi-final stage unless the Italians can do something big next week.
André Onana is booed as he takes his first touch.
His war of words with former United man Nemanja Matić has added some extra spice to this game.
KICK OFF!
And we're under way.
We're moments away from kick off across Europe.
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of tonight's three Europa League quarter-final first leg games!
