Rangers head coach, Philippe Clement, has praised Cyriel Dessers for his stunning goal against Manchester United.
The Red Devils defeated Scottish side Rangers 2-1 in their UEFA Europa League clash on Thursday night.
Dessers, who came in as a substitute in the second half, scored Rangers equaliser with an intelligent move after Butland’s error put Man United in front. However, a last-minute goal from Bruno Fenandez sealed the win for Ruben Amorim’s men.
The Super Eagles star heads into the game on the back of his first hat trick for the club against Fraserburgh in the Scottish Cup.

Clement hails Dessers
Clement has hailed Dessers for his equaliser against Amorim’s men despite his team falling to a defeat.

“It is easy to go behind 1-0 to Manchester United and to lose belief when you have so many young players on the pitch who don’t have experience at this level,” in quotes revealed by Rangers official website.
The Belgian coach also commended Dessers for his calm finish, but expressed disappointment that his team did not earn a point at the Theatre of Dreams.

“We kept going and scored a very good goal, it was a great finish from Cyriel, but it is a pity we got a sucker punch at the end as the team deserved more and a draw would have been a fair result,” the Rangers coach added.
To advance to the knockout stages without the play-offs, Manchester United and Rangers still need to win their remaining Europa League group phase matches.
