20 minHalf-chance for Rangers as Daly attempts to find Peralta in the danger zone, but his pass is intercepted and the danger is cleared.
23 minStenhousemuir threaten for the first time as they win a corner, but fail to make anything of it thanks to a powerful header away from Lee McCulloch.
26 minA couple of chances fall Rangers' way. First Macleod slices wide after good work from Peralta, then Little has an effort smothered after being lined up by Macleod. Good pressure from the hosts.
29 minMacleod has been a live wire during this first half. He feeds Law along the left channel, but the midfielder puts too much on his cross for Daly to connect with it.
31 minCHANCE! Macleod plays a through ball to Little, who times his run to perfection, but curles his finish over the bar. The quality of passing and movement from Rangers has been first rate today.
38 minGOAL! Rangers 3-0 Stenhousemuir (Smith, OG)
38 minAndy Little is claiming Rangers' third goal, but it was Stenhousemuir defender Smith that got the final touch. Black played in the cross and Mohsni supplied the header, which was saved by the goalkeeper, but McKinlay's attempted clearance bobbles over the line off Smith under pressure from Little.
41 minRangers in total control here at Ibrox. Stenhousemuir have not had a clear-cut shot on goal so far, while the likes of Little, Daly and Macleod have been too much for them to handle. The latter has just curled a shot narrowly wide of the post.
42 minOFF THE POST! Daley does well to sling a lofted pass to Law at the back post. The midfielder leaps higher than his marker, but his effort comes back off the upright.
45 minHALF TIME: Rangers 3-0 Stenhousemuir
3.50pmRangers are flying here at Ibrox, with a Daly brace and an own goal from Smith giving them a three-goal lead at the break. It doesn't look like there is any hope for Stenhousemuir in this second half.
3.54pmThere's a poignant tribute to the armed forces going on at Ibrox at half time, with uniformed officers from the army and navy matching in procession across the pitch, accompanied by bagpipers.
3.58pmAlthough Rangers will move another three points clear of Stenhousemuir should things remain the same, it looks as though second-placed Dunfermline will be keeping the gap limited to five points. They have a 4-1 lead over Aye United at half time.
4.02pmMeanwhile, in the Scottish Premier League Inverness Caledonian Thistle are keeping the pressure up on Rangers' city rivals Celtic at the top of the table. They lead Hibs 1-0 at the break.
46 minKICKOFF: The second half gets under way at Ibrox.
47 minStenhousemuir start the second period on the ropes as Rangers get plenty of bodies forward. Foster whips in a cross, but Smith heads clear. The ball eventually finds its way out for a Gers corner.
48 minHalf-chance for Rangers as Daley plays in a measured cross from the right. Andy Little gets a yard on his marker and goes up for the header, but his glancing effort drifts over the bar.

54 minWallace goes on a mazy run and is taken out on the edge of the box. The referee waves play on, much to the Rangers' man's frustration. To be fair, he has a point. The Stenhousemuir defender clearly missed the ball there.
56 minOFF THE BAR! Andy Little is desperately unlucky not to extend Rangers' lead as he has a shot cleared off then line, then hits the bar in quick succession. Daley latches onto the rebound but blazes it over.
58 minRangers playing confident football in this second half. Aside from that one defensive lapse, they have been just as dominant as they were in the first period. I think there are more goals in them this afternoon.
60 minGOAL! Rangers 5-0 Stenhousemuir (Wallace)
60 minLee Wallace nets his first goal since Boxing Day after latching onto a lofted pass from Ian Black, who demonstrates great vision to pick him out. He keeps his cool and side-foots one beyond Smith to make it 5-0.

4.58pmThe referee blows the final whistle and puts Stenhousemuir out of their misery. Eight of the best for a dominant Rangers today. They can only beat what's in front of them, and they did so in style today.
5.00pmEight goals today and seven league wins out of seven for the Gers. That's all from me this afternoon. Many thanks for joining Sports Mole for this Scottish League One fixture.
