Cyriel Dessers delivered a match-winning performance as Rangers secured a 4-2 comeback victory against Kilmarnock, with the Nigerian forward scoring a remarkable brace on Wednesday.
Trailing 2-1, Rangers turned to their star striker, who swiftly responded by netting twice to steer his team to a crucial away win.
One of Dessers’ goals was a moment of brilliance, striking the ball first-time with his instep.
“On instinct, on autopilot. That’s what you do as a striker,” he told Sky Sports after the game.
The goals marked Dessers’ 19th and 20th strikes of the season across all competitions, silencing critics in Glasgow.
His prolific form has established him as a pivotal figure in Rangers’ attack.
“Twenty goals in February is not bad. I have three months left and I want more. And I would rather win a prize.
My hunger is growing,” the 29-year-old added.
Dessers’ decisive contribution further solidifies his status as Rangers’ key player, as the club aims for silverware in the final stretch of the season.
