Cyriel Dessers had a night to remember as he marked his 100th game for Rangers with a last-minute winning goal. The Light Blues secured a thrilling 4-3 victory over Dundee at Dens Park on Saturday night, with Dessers playing a crucial role in the match.
The Nigerian forward, who has now scored 45 goals for Rangers, described the moment as special. Speaking to Rangers TV, he shared his excitement about scoring so late in the game.
“It was very nice to score so late, but the 90 minutes before that were not that nice,” Dessers said. “At the end, scoring like that in my 100th game is a very nice feeling.”
Dessers explained how he anticipated a cross from teammate James Tavernier and controlled the ball well before slipping it past the goalkeeper. He admitted it was an unforgettable moment, especially since it was an injury-time winner.
This season, Dessers has been in top form, registering 22 goals and seven assists for Rangers. His contributions have been vital in the team’s push for success in the Scottish Premiership.
Rangers fans will be hoping for more match-winning moments from Dessers as the season progresses.
