Despite scoring a lucky but spectacular goal to help Rangers complete a comeback against Dundee, Todd Cantwell looked disheartened during his post-match interview with Sky. The midfielder’s impressive performance earned him the man of the match title as Rangers secured a 5-2 victory in their penultimate league game of the season. Cantwell’s return to the starting line-up after being benched in the previous Old Firm defeat showcased his determination to delay Celtic’s championship celebrations.
Although Celtic only needed a point from their remaining games to secure a third consecutive title, Cantwell emphasized the importance of Rangers getting back to winning ways. However, the dejected playmaker refused to delve into his lucky goal at Ibrox when questioned, stating that the focus was solely on securing the victory.
Cantwell acknowledged the need for a reaction after a disappointing start to the match, where Rangers conceded two sloppy goals in the first half. When asked about his goal, he dismissed the topic, emphasizing the team’s desperation for a win following the previous weekend’s defeat. Despite being snubbed in the derby match, Cantwell simply replied that it was always important to perform well.
Reflecting on the challenging game against Dundee, he highlighted the opposition’s defensive tactics and praised Scott Wright for coming on and making a difference with two great goals. Cantwell’s focus remained on the team’s performance and the importance of securing the victory, showcasing his professionalism and dedication to the Rangers.
