Super Eagles forward Cyriel Dessers scored a hat-trick for Rangers as they progressed to the Scottish Cup last 16 with a 5-0 victory over Fraserburgh.
Dessers’ hat trick and strikes from Clinton Nsiala and Ross McCausland hammered Highland League Fraserburgh in the fourth round tie.
Dessers showed the two sides of his game in the first half, somehow missing a sitter with the goal gaping before finally breaking the deadlock after 27 minutes.
