Jermain Defoe\u00a0scored just 12 minutes into his Rangers debut as Steven Gerrard’s men face Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership.<\/p>\n
The veteran striker was on hand to poke the ball into the net from four yards out in typical poacher’s fashion to give his side the lead.<\/p>\n
The 37-year-old has now extraordinarily scored on his competitive debut for five of his last seven clubs.<\/p>\n
He bagged a goal on his first showing for Bournemouth, West Ham, Tottenham and Toronto prior to this evening’s trip to Rugby Park.<\/p>\n
And it’s safe to say some Rangers fans on Twitter lapped up the news of another debut goal for the legendary striker.<\/p>\n
Below you can see some of the best Defoe tweets.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Defoe and Rangers, his goal did not lead to a win as Kilmarnock fought back to win 2-1 which sees Gers go down to third and three points behind Celtic, who are top of the Scottish Premiership.<\/p>\n
But it’s safe to say Gers fans are excited about their new signing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
