After four minutes at Ibrox last night, a rare event occurred.
Glen Kamara scored a goal.
Remarkably, it’s just his second ever senior league strike, despite starting over 60 club matches.
He does have one international goal from his seven Finland caps, but at club level, he rarely gets involved in rounding things off in the final third.
You wouldn’t have known it, though.
The 23-year-old tucked away James Tavernier’s cross with all the confidence of an in form striker.

It was an important goal for the side, too.
Too often this season, the Gers have failed to make the most of early opportunities, which allows tension to build up throughout the game.
On Wednesday night, Kamara’s effort alleviated any early tension at the ground, and after just over 20 minutes, Gerrard’s men had three.
Looks a great acquisition
Overall, it’s been a fantastic start for the January signing.
He had to wait a little while to get his first opportunity, but he’s now started four consecutive matches.
Surely, going into a big Scottish Cup quarter-final at the weekend, he’s near undroppable.
Homegrown talent,
Ross McCrorie has suffered as a result of Kamara’s rise, but the new man has simply performed too well to be left out.
It seems he’s enjoying himself, too.
After the match, he posted a picture on Twitter of him celebrating the goal. Furthermore, he added a caption: ‘Another big result for us tonight, the boys are flying! Nice to get my first goal for the club as well.’
He can do no wrong at the minute, and of course, those words went down a storm with some fans.
