Rangers fans have raved about Joe Aribo following his post-Ross County tweet and have urged him to produce similar heroics against Celtic.
Aribo opened the scoring against the Staggies on Sunday with a superb curling left-footed shot from the right corner of the box.
It was a moment of real quality from the Nigeria international, who after a disrupted pre-season, now looks to be approaching his best levels.
Steven Gerrard raved about the 25-year-old after the game in Dingwall, labelling his goal ‘fantastic’ and asserting that it had been coming [Rangers.co.uk].
On Monday afternoon, Aribo tweeted his own reaction, posting a video of his goal and captioning it “Good away win yesterday, enjoyed that one”.
Unsurprisingly, the post went down well with supporters, who praised him and urged him to produce something similarly spectacular against Celtic.
The first Old Firm of the season will take place at Ibrox on Sunday afternoon and Aribo is highly likely to make the starting XI, either in midfield or in the right inside forward berth.
He’s yet to score against the Hoops but has only lost to them twice, with five wins and a draw from eight encounters.
Here’s a selection of reactions from Twitter:
