When Kilmarnock won in this match in October, Dodds was present in a media role, saying that in SportSound that day his former team’s attitude was “thousands off it.”
That threatened to be the case again on Wednesday. The heads were down or trembling, the shoulders were collapsed and the trust was devoid.
Then, Vaclav Cerny hit to reduce the deficit before the break. Only a matter of minutes after NSIALA was hooked.
What followed was “different class,” said Ferguson.
It was certainly a different rangers.
Cyriel’s poses, which first transported their lateral level and then fired them in front, revealed that Ferguson told them in the long time that “we are still in this.”
“We leave and feel: ‘Hey, we will get them today’ After that goal after part time,” the striker told Sky Sports.
A euphoric Euferguson could not hide his emotions when the final beep appeared after what turned out to be a fairly comfortable victory.
Relieved, yes. But rational enough to realize that the rangers are far from being resurgent.
“You must be resistant to Glasgow Rangers,” Ferguson said. “There are demands and expectations to win each game and, if you do not, you enter criticism and need to handle that criticism.
“There is much to work and work on it, but one thing they showed tonight was the character.”
For a fair, the Rangers have lacked in that department. There are still many unanswered questions when it comes to Ferguson’s credentials, but it is a good example of showing character.
