The Gers striker described Sunday바카라s 3-3 draw at Ibrox as 바카라one of the craziest games of my life바카라 and it left the Light Blues one point behind the Hoops at the top of the table having played a game fewer.

Rangers will play their game in hand against Dundee at Dens Park on Wednesday night but still  have to go to Parkhead after the split.

Despite a 2-1 defeat there in December, which followed a 1-0 defeat at Ibrox in September, Dessers revealed confidence when asked if the Light Blues were capable of winning in the east end of Glasgow.

The 29-year-old Nigeria international said: 바카라We showed on Sunday we can score three goals against a good team and also in the previous two games, obviously we lost them, but I don바카라t think it was fully deserved."

바카라We showed we can hurt them and if we바카라re a little more lucky 바카라 like with the first goal 바카라 and we can take our moments then we can get a good win there."

바카라I think we saw that quality-wise we are also very close to each other. But I hope after Wednesday that I can say that we are on top of the league."

바카라With the result and performance on Sunday, in the second half especially, that will give us a mental boost as well."

바카라So I hope we are slightly ahead. We will have to be ready from now until the last game, but I think we are.바카라

Philippe Clement바카라s side found themselves a goal down after just 21 seconds when an attempted clearance from hesitant skipper James Tavernier rebounded off Daizen Maeda and sped past keeper Jack Butland.

Celtic midfielder Matt O바카라Riley dinked in a penalty but Tavernier scored from the spot as the hosts rallied after the interval.

Dessers had a strike ruled out for an earlier infringement before Abdallah Sima levelled in the 86th minute, only for Adam Idah to restore Celtic바카라s lead.

There was more drama when Ibrox substitute Rabbi Matondo levelled in eight minutes of added time.

Dessers has scored 17 goals this season since signing from Cremonese last summer but hopes to break his Old Firm duck at Parkhead.

He said: 바카라Yeah, I thought I scored and I celebrated as well. So I had a little taste of the feeling."

바카라But I was unlucky because it got chalked off. I heard it was a foul which was unlucky for me and for the team in that moment. But we bounced back."

바카라I am getting closer all the time so the next game would be a very good moment to score my first Old Firm goal."

바카라It is difficult to sum up the things I felt on Sunday. It was one of the craziest games of my life."

바카라That is obvious if you see what happens after 21 seconds, if you see what happens after the first-half, if you see what happens at the end, in the last 10 or 15 minutes of the game. It is too much to sum up."

바카라But I think I can sit here and speak for the team, speak for Rangers, and say we have to have a positive feeling."

바카라If we can come back like that in a big game like that with the pressure full on then it says a lot about the team and the mentality of the team.바카라
