# Rangers: Fans loved Alfredo Morelos’ antics during Cove cup clash

**Many Glasgow Rangers fans were delighted with Alfredo Morelos after his antics on the bench during the Gers’ 4-0 victory over Cove Rangers in the Scottish Cup on Sunday.**

The Gers were in fantastic form as they progressed to the fourth round of the competition. They scored all of their goals [in the first 45 minutes](https://www.skysports.com/football/rangers-vs-cove-rangers/report/440574), with Kemar Roofe bagging a brace and Jermain Defoe and Nathan Patterson netting one apiece. The 55-time Scottish champions’ reward for winning will be [a tie against Celtic](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12265705/scottish-cup-celtic-drawn-against-rangers-or-cove-rangers-in-fourth-round) at Ibrox.

Morelos was on the bench for the game on Sunday and didn’t get on to the pitch. However, the 24-year-old still seemed to be enjoying himself, and was pictured having a laugh with his teammates, including club captain James Tavernier. As per [Daily Record](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/alfredo-morelos-rangers-bench-shenanigans-23852541), TV cameras caught the Colombia international throwing scraps of paper towards the skipper and Roofe.

A video of his antics was [shared on Twitter by @kirsten93\_](https://twitter.com/kirsten93_/status/1378788109513592834), and it attracted plenty of attention from Gers supporters. These fans took to the social media platform to share their thoughts, with one drawing comparisons between Morelos and [charismatic](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rino-gattuso-tells-incredible-paul-13423937) former Ibrox star Paul Gascoigne.
