Rangers and Super Eagles striker Cyril Dessers has continued to receive praise for his sweet strike against Manchester United in the Europa League.

Former Chelsea and Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo has praised compatriot Cyriel Dessers for his outstanding performance in Rangers' UEFA Europa League defeat to Manchester United.

Dessers scored a fine goal to draw the Gers level at 1-1 after receiving a lofted pass from James Tavernier inside the box and unleashing a brilliant shot into the bottom-right corner,

Omeruo took to his X account (formerly Twitter) to express his admiration for Dessers.

"What a goal by Cyriel Dessers. One of the best finishers from Naija," Omeruo wrote.

Despite facing criticism in the Scottish league, Dessers continues to silence his doubters with impressive performances for Philippe Clement's side.

The 30-year-old has tallied 17 goals in 34 appearances this season, sparking rumours of a potential move to the Italian Serie A.
