Ally McCoist delights Rangers academy stars as Ibrox legend produces striking masterclass

Rangers legend Ally McCoist has delighted young academy prospects after putting on a striking show as they wait to return to training.

With youth players yet to return to action, Rangers have been continuing their webinars where the youngster log on to video calls to do home training.

And they had an exciting one on Tuesday night as the club's record goalscorer joined the chat to explain to them how he become such a top striker.

The former star man and manager is the latest in a list of current and ex-players to help out on the lockdown training sessions with manager Steven Gerrard also appearing.

Frontman Jermain Defoe previously appeared on it as well and the youngsters are getting the opportunity to learn more about the game from those who have achieved their dreams.

Young players have been unable to showcase their abilities at the Auchenhowie training base since early March after the country was put into lockdown.

It means they've already gone four months without proper training and are likely to have to wait another couple of months.

But these sessions with legends of the club and current players will provide them with added incentive to produce the goods when they get back to action.
