Rangers produced an outstanding performance on Thursday night.
The Gers put one foot in the next round of the Europa League by winning 4-2 away to Borussia Dortmund.
The Bundesliga giants have been a European heavyweight for quite a number of years.
So for Rangers to post such a convincing and emphatic display against them – away from home, too – speaks volumes for the work Giovanni van Bronckhorst in doing at Ibrox.
Hell, even a rival player couldn’t help but to highlight the light Blues’ performance on Twitter.
Aberdeen forward Christian Ramirez posted on Twitter, “3-1 what a game so far” accompanied by an emoji of a Scotland flag.
However, the USA international, who moved to Scotland last summer, swiftly received a backlash by supporters of the Pittodrie club and elected to delete the post.
Here’s what Ramirez posted next following his original tweet on the Rangers game.
Within 22 minutes of posting the original message, Ramirez’s tweet had far more responses than ‘likes’ on the post, which is never a good indication.
The Dons technically aren’t rivalling Rangers this season, with the Gers 32 points clear in the Scottish Premiership standings.
However, there has been enough bad blood down the years to make Aberdeen supporters not want to see one of their own positively commenting on Van Bronckhorst’s outfit, no matter the context.
