Hagi demands full 90-minute effort as Rangers eye Scottish Cup quarter-final spot

Ianis Hagi wants Rangers to put in a complete 90 minute performance as they target a place in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals. 

Rangers face Queen's Park at Ibrox on Sunday afternoon having had the rare luxury of a whole week to prepare, something that Hagi hopes can benefit his side. 

Hibernian, Celtic, Dundee, Livingston, St Johnstone, and Aberdeen are all in the hat for Monday's draw. Now it's on Rangers to avoid a shock upset and progress into the last eight.

"We had a good week of training and there are stuff that we couldn't normally do during the season, so we took advantage of that," Hagi explained. "Hopefully we can top it off with a good performance today.

"I think we have to keep a clean sheet. I think we have improved that recently and then playing at home in front of the fans, we want to make them enjoy the football, enjoy the day, and hopefully get goals into the back of the net. 

"We had a good team meeting the last couple of days analysing them and the way they play. Obviously they will probably be a little bit different tonight but we understand the way they play and we usually respect every opponent. 

"But we are at home and we want to get into the next round, win, and make the fans happy by putting in a 90 minute performance so everyone can enjoy their Sunday."
