Ryan Kent was immense for Rangers in their 4-2 Europa League win over Borussia Dortmund on Thursday evening and the stats prove it.
The winger has only scored two goals this season across all competitions but coming into this high-profile fixture at Signal Iduna Park, he already had eleven assists to his name.
He added another in the 49th minute of the Dortmund game, taking out multiple defenders with his sharp footwork before cutting the ball back for Lundstram to finish with aplomb.
There was a lot more to his performance than just the assist, though.
Kent had 44 touches across the 90 minutes and completed 18 of his 22 passes, giving him a completion rate of 82%.
He was credited with three key passes by SofaScore, while he was successful with four of his six attempted dribbles.
The 25-year-old was fouled twice and he chipped in with two interceptions.
Kent was also excellent out of possession.
He made four tackles and won a remarkable ten of his 14 ground duels, while he was only dribbled past once [SofaScore].
The Englishman has stepped up in big games before, delivering in multiple Old Firms, and this was one of his top performances in a Rangers shirt.
He made experienced high-level defenders look foolish but also did a job for the team and he deserves all the praise that came his way last night.
If he and his teammates can reach similar levels again at Ibrox in a week’s time, Rangers should progress.
Meanwhile, a bluenose EFL player celebrated the first leg win on Twitter.
