A lot of Rangers fans have responded to a tweet from their club, showing a goal scored by Ian Durrant against Hearts.
The video shows Davie Cooper running with the ball (0:05) before he turns his back to the defender and then drops his shoulder to get past the Hearts man. (0:08)
In the same motion, he plays a delightful ball through for Durrant, who places the ball into the corner. (0:10)
Durrant is taken out by a Hearts defender in the process of scoring but still manages to find the corner with ease. (0:12)
Do you like this video?
Yes, love it
No, not a fan
This has led to many Rangers fans drooling over this goal and particularly the role that Cooper played in it.

Cooper. That shoulder drop. Genius.

Hacked down from behind. Durrant would have been worth many millions of pounds if he played today.

If ever there was a player who due to injury never fulfilled his potential ian durrant is that player, he was real class and a top blue nose to boot !

What do we think?
This was a good finish from Durrant (0:12), especially as he was wiped out as he was trying to score (0:12), but we agree with these Gers fans that Cooper is the one who deserves the credit.
He shows great skill and awareness to create the chance (0:05), and it is no surprise that many Rangers fans are lauding him with praise.
