Atakayi: I Will Keep Pushing

RANGERS Academy forward Serge Atakayi says he is ready to keep pushing himself after returning from injury in last night’s Glasgow Cup match against Partick Thistle.

The 20-year-old came on as a second half substitute replacing Brandon Barker with 20 minutes of the game remaining.

It was his first appearance in over a month after a knee and hamstring injury kept him sidelined since the Crusaders game at the beginning of July.

He said:

Rangers lost the match 2-0 with Partick Thistle grabbing two late goals in the last five minutes of the match.

Atakayi added: “I am a little bit disappointed about the game. We had a lot of chances in the first half but we didn’t take our chances and they scored so we need to be more clinical when we have the chance.
