Dessers left the pitch against FCSB in some distress before heading straight up the tunnel and not re-appearing
Philippe Clement has revealed Cyriel Dessers was temporarily BLINDED during Rangers' 4-0 win over FCSB and that the striker apologised for heading straight up the tunnel after being subbed.
And Clement explained that Dessers got a finger in the eye, rendering him unable to see and the decision was made to bring him off. He hadn't been having a good night until then, and his reaction to being hooked was one of a man not willing to make way yet and his disappearing act was noted by the boss. But Clement admitted that Dessers quickly apologised and the Light Blues manager put it down to emotions running high.
"He was hungry to score, hungry to play good for the team, which is what he was doing during the game. He got a knock on his eyes and he lost eyesight so he couldn't see anything anymore., not enough to play.
