Glasgow Rangers delivered one of their worst performances of the season as the Ibrox side slumped to a Premiership defeat at Rugby Park.

Although Kilmarnock scored late on to secure a 1-0 victory, repeating their success from last term, the Light Blues didn’t look like scoring throughout the 90 minutes.

Far too many of Philippe Clement’s side were passengers during the tie. They were outfought in the most important battles and failed to offer a significant threat in the final third.

While much of this was due to Tom Lawrence and Vaclav Cerny not creating enough opportunities, Cyriel Dessers was the biggest culprit, as he was dismal yet again.

Cyriel Dessers’ performance in numbers

The Nigerian centre-forward may have scored seven times this season, but he has failed to find the back of the net in a league tie since the 6-0 win over Ross County in August.

Due to the lack of competition in his position, Dessers started once again on Sunday afternoon, yet at times, it appeared like the Gers were operating with ten men due to his ineffectiveness in the final third.
