Rangers progressed to the Scottish Cup last 16, with Cyriel Dessers’ hat trick and strikes from Clinton Nsiala and Ross McCausland undoing Highland League Fraserburgh and continuing the lack of shocks in the fourth round.
That was always unlikely at Ibrox given the disparity between the teams, but the north east side can proudly reflect on a spirited first-half display, in particular, in front of near 1,500 visiting fans.
Dessers showed the two sides of his game in the first half, somehow missing a sitter with the goal gaping before finally breaking the deadlock after 27 minutes.
A corner was floated in by James Tavernier and Dessers found space to nod home.
-That all Fraserburgh’s hard work was undone so easily will have frustrated manager Mark Cowie, but his side stuck at it and almost found a dream equaliser.
Debutant Rangers goalkeeper Mason Munn sprayed the ball straight to Scott Barbour under pressure from Connor Wood. However, the striker’s shot from a narrow angle went through Munn’s legs and flashed just past the far post.
