Nigeria International Cyril Dessers has set an unbreakable personal record as Manchester United defeated Rangers on Thursday, Sports247 reports.
The forward scored in the 88th minutes to equalise for Rangers against Manchester in the UEFA Europa League round 7 match which ended 2-1 in favour of Manchester United.
Cyril Desser’s lone strike, made him the first Rangers’ player to score Manchester United against Manchester United in a competition competition.
This record will stay with him forever for the being the first ever, as Rangers failed to score in the last five meetings between the two British side until Thursday’s game .
Substitute Cyriel Desser’s sensational strike two minutes from time looked like it was going to salvage a dramatic late point for Rangers, before Fernandes met Lisandro Martinez’s cross on the volley two minutes into stoppage time.
Jack Butland’s comical own goal had put Ruben Amorim’s side ahead early in the second half, but Rangers carried a threat all night,
The last minute gnashing of teeth lost means Rangers chances of finishing in the top eight, as they have fallen to 13th and need to beat Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise on home soil next week and hope other results go their way to gain automatic passage into the last 16.
United, now fourth, will definitely make it if they win away at Romanians FCSB.
