Cyriel Dessers showcased his prowess as Rangers FC orchestrated a remarkable comeback against Dundee, securing a resounding 5-2 victory.

Facing the imperative of bouncing back from a 2-1 defeat against arch-rivals Celtic, Rangers FC demonstrated resilience and determination to keep their title aspirations alive.

Initially trailing 2-0, Philippe Clément’s side showed character and fortitude, staging a stunning resurgence to clinch a crucial win.

The turnaround began with Ross McCausland narrowing the deficit just before halftime, injecting renewed hope into the Rangers’ camp.

However, it was Dessers who emerged as the catalyst for the comeback, netting the equalizer in the 52nd minute with his 22nd goal of the season for the Scottish outfit.

With momentum firmly on their side, Rangers seized control of the match, with Todd Cantwell’s decisive strike in the 65th minute propelling them into the lead.

The introduction of Scott Wright in the 82nd minute proved pivotal, as the substitute made an instant impact, finding the net twice in the closing stages (87th and 90+3), sealing a comprehensive victory for his team.

The triumph sees Rangers FC surge to second place in the standings with 84 points, keeping them firmly in contention for the title

. In contrast, Dundee finds themselves languishing in sixth and last place, with 41 points to their name.

Dessers’ commanding performance underscores his importance to the Rangers’ cause, with his clinical finishing and attacking prowess instrumental in turning the tide in favor of his team.

As the season unfolds, Rangers FC will look to build on this impressive victory as they continue their pursuit of glory in the Scottish Premiership.
