Dessers lifts lid on Ferguson's halftime team talk vs Kilmarnock

Cyriel Dessers has lifted the lid on what Barry Ferguson told the Rangers dressing room at halftime during their comeback victory over Kilmarnock this evening.

The visitors to Rugby Park went 2-0 down early doors thanks to goals from Joe Wright and Brad Lyons.

After an early substitution which saw Ridvan Yilmaz replace Clinton Nsiala, Rangers rallied, as Vaclav Cerny, Dessers, and Nedim Bajrami scored in what turned out to be, in the end, a comfortable 4-2 win.

Speaking post-match, striker Dessers lifted the lid on what the boss told his players at the break: "Obviously he wasn't happy," he said (Sky Sports).

"We knew that. 

"He said we're still in the game. Vaclav (Cerny) got us back into the game, so you're still in there, and you have to match their intensity and fight, and the quality will show."

Next up for Ferguson and Co. is a home game against Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership this weekend.

The 47-year-old's stint in charge of the club he gave so much to as a player couldn't have started any better, and he will now look to build on such a positive beginning.
