Watch Cedric Itten slam home his first Rangers goal as fans rave about 'rocket' strike

Cedric Itten slammed home his first Rangers goal in the 5-1 victory over Motherwell, and fans like what they've seen.

The Swiss frontman opened his account with a sublime finish from the edge of the area.

Scott Arfield zipped a pass into Itten before the striker teed himself up and rifled the ball past Trevor Carson with real power.

Itten doubled his account a short time later from close ranger, but it was his opening goal fans were left raving about.

"Thank you to the Motherwell fans and Cedric Itten for bringing the fireworks" - @CF3Loyal

"Couldn't have Itten that more sweetly" - @PlayGrum

"NASA want their rocket back" - @Matty4598

"A thing of beauty" - @ljmk18

"Now that's how you open your Rangers account" - @kanea_7

"Doesn't look at the goal once, makes it even better" - @JaeBaxter

James Tavernier also bagged a double while Jordan Jones got himself on the scoresheet as Rangers won the match 5-1.

A late George Edmundson own-goal was a consolation for the home side.
