Joe Worrall and his mum were loving the Ibrox atmosphere created by Glasgow Rangers fans.
Joe Worrall has revealed to Rangers TV what his mum thought about the Ibrox faithful in October.
Rangers beat Rapid Wien 3-1 in the Europa League a couple of months ago.
Ibrox was hopping before, during and especially after the game, as Gerrard’s side pulled off what was arguably their most impressive result of the season so far.
The 21-year-old’s mother sampled the atmosphere on that occasion and she, according to Worrall, only had one word to describe it: ridiculous.
Worrall, on loan from Nottingham Forest, told Rangers TV: “The atmosphere was the best I have ever played in. It was fantastic.
“My mum was at the game and she said it was a ridiculous atmosphere. Ijust think the pace of the game was really good, we were on the front foot.
“It’s nice when you are putting in tackles and headers and the crowd gets behind you. I think it’s something that us as players, especially at home, thrive on when the fans get behind you and you are playing in front of your home crowd.”
The atmosphere this past Thursday wasn’t bad either, with the Gers earning a very unlikely point at home to Villarreal.
Well, it wasn’t that unlikely before the game, given that Gerrard’s side had drawn 2-2 in Spain for what was another brilliant result, but circumstance indicates that Thursday’s point was also remarkable.
The Glasgow giants played 45 minutes with 10 men following Daniel Candeias’s red card and Rangers’ back line – especially Allan McGregor in goal – produced a herculean effort to keep out the Spanish outfit.
