Dessers wasted no time making his mark, breaking the deadlock early in the match with a composed finish. He then turned provider, setting up Rangers’ second goal in a dominant attacking display.
His contributions ensured Rangers maintained control against a Fenerbahce side that was missing Nigerian defender Bright Osayi-Samuel due to suspension.
With this performance, Dessers now holds the record for the most goal contributions by a Nigerian striker in 2025, tallying 13 in all competitions. His efforts earned him the Man of the Match award, as he outshone his compatriots and the Turkish giants in Istanbul.
Rangers’ victory strengthens their push for European success as they continue their quest for silverware. Dessers’ form will be a key factor for the Scottish side as they advance further in the tournament.
