SCORING a double in Rangers’ emphatic cinch Premiership win over Hibernian at Ibrox on Saturday and taking his haul of goals to seven in as many games, pleased Abdallah Sima greatly.
So Sima was, along with all of his Rangers team mates, delighted when the Nigerian internationalist slotted beyond Hibs goalkeeper David Marshall with a composed finish at the weekend.The Brighton loanee is as determined to supply the 28-year-old with opportunities up front as he is to add to his own tally – and he has now been on target nine times in all competitions in the 2023/24 campaign – in the weeks ahead.
“But it’s not just about Abdallah Sima scoring. I am happy when any of the strikers, or anyone else in the team, scores goals. The important thing is that the team won the game. Sima is optimistic that better times lie ahead for everyone at Rangers under new manager Philippe Clement after being impressed with the Belgian during his first week in the job.
“He is a new manager with new thoughts and a new mentality, so it will take time for his ideas to come across. But he wants us to work harder than before. We know this is going to be a long season, so we have to keep working hard. “We just focus on what we are going to do in the next game and to be better as a team. We have to help each other.”
