Rangers fans have reacted on Twitter to Allan McGregor’s hilarious StayAtHome Challenge video.

Plenty enjoyed Alfredo Morelos’ simplistic effort, while the likes of Joe Aribo and Ianis Hagi have impressed supporters with their skills in recent days.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, there were no fancy tricks or flicks in McGregor’s challenge, though.

The 38-year-old uses both feet to complete seven or eight traditional keepy-ups, but wraps things up in a unique way.

He puts a little extra on his final touch, before turning and catching the toilet roll in the back of his shorts and casually exiting the room.

It’s a pretty unique take from the stopper, and he also opted to nominate ‘everyone’ rather than a few friends or teammates, as ‘we should all be at home staying safe!’

Here’s a selection of reactions from Twitter:

McGregor makes an especially relevant point in the wake of Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s address to the nation on Monday evening.

With the UK now entering what is essentially a period of lockdown, the government has urged everyone to stay at home for the foreseeable future in an effort to stop the spread of Covid-19.
