Rangers midfielder Ovie Ejaria has praised the Ibrox fans for their support to Steven Gerrard’s side against Rapid Vienna, as quoted in The Glasgow Evening Times.

Ejaria, who joined Rangers on loan from Liverpool in the summer transfer window, was in action for the Gers against Vienna at Ibrox in the Europa League Group G on Thursday evening.

The 20-year-old midfielder – who earns £104,000 per year as salary, according to Spotrac.com – started the match and played for the entire 90 minutes.

The England Under-21 international – who spent the second half of last season on loan at Sunderland – was impressed with the Rangers fans at Ibrox on Thursday.

Ejaria told The Glasgow Evening Times: “It was a really good performance by us. Everyone was really happy. The atmosphere was great as well.

“It was the best I have ever experienced. Nothing has been close to it – especially after Alfredo scored the third. The noise was just incredible.”

The Rangers players were superb on Thursday evening, and the Ibrox faithful will hope that they push on from now and climb up the Scottish Premiership table.
