Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have a gem in Josh McPake.
Rangers talent Josh McPake enhanced his reputation on Tuesday night.
The Gers’ Colts side moved into the third round of the Tunnock’s Caramel Wafer Challenge Cup with a 2-0 victory at League One side Stranraer.
And it was the Rangers hitman who got the scoring underway after 58 minutes, picking up a loose ball and drilling home to send Graeme Murty’s side ahead.
Jamie Barjonas made the result safe in the closing stages, but it was 17-year-old McPake who took the post-match headlines for his goal and all-round display.
The teenager signed a new contract this summer amid speculation of a move to Liverpool and Roma, and Rangers fans are praising him on Twitter:
Rangers have a deluge of top young strikers in the academy, but perhaps none more promising than McPake.
After all, he made his senior debut under Steven Gerrard last month, indicating that he’s talented beyond his years.
