Cyriel Dessers has opened up on his frustrated gesture to Rangers supporters.

The Ibrox striker appeared to vent his frustration during the 2-0 loss to Dynamo Kyiv in Champions League qualifying last month. 

And Dessers has admitted he had been left angered by boos and whistles while the match was at 0-0.

The striker had shown his emotions with ten minutes left as he threw his arms into the air and gestured towards the fans after he struggled to control a pass from Vaclav Cerny.

Moments later, Dynamo Kyiv snatched a lead before adding a second goal and advancing in the competition with Rangers dropping into the Europa League league phase.

Quizzed on the moment on Sky Sports, Dessers said: "I think it was so specific to the moment.

"I heard boos and whistles and at that point, you think, 'Come on guys, we need you'.

"We really needed them at that moment and part of the fans didn't give it at that time and then you get a little bit frustrated.

"The fans are massive for us and we need them in a positive way. I think they don't know how important they can be for this team.

"They can push us through games, and they can win us games."
