‘Ryan Jack or Ronaldinho?’, ‘What a hit son!’ – Rangers fans celebrate stunning opening goal v Kilmarnock
Ryan Jack #RyanJack
Ryan Jack scored a stunning volley to open the scoring against Kilmarnock – beating Colin Doyle in the top corner from more than 20 yards.
A James Tavernier free-kick into the penalty area was not cleared and Leon Balogun’s shot was blocked. The ball ricocheted to the midfielder and he sent a goal of the season contender into the net to open the scoring.
Players celebrated on the pitch and so did the fans watching at home – with some comparing the strike to previous scored by Rangers manager Steven Gerrard in his illustrious career.
@RangersFACTS: “Woooooooooooooooooooow! What a hit son, what a hit!”
Gary Hendry: “What a wonderful goal, first touch perfect and set for a beautiful strike. Thanks Ryan Jack.”
@deanbuchan7: “Ryan Jack or Ronaldinho?”
@sevco_steve: “Unreal finish.”
@Euas04: “You sure that’s not Gerrard playing?”
@RS1872: “Take a bow Ryan son, absolutely fantastic finish.”
Tina Brown: “What a cracker of a goal.”
Rangers Ladies defender @NicDoc11 added: “What a zinger from Jack! #Superb”
