# Rangers: Jordan Campbell hails Ryan Kent in Scottish Cup win

**Jordan Campbell was left hugely impressed by Ryan Kent’s ‘intensity’ in Rangers’ 3-0 win this afternoon in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals.\**

### The Lowdown: Gers ease into semi-finals

Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side were looking to progress to the last four of the competition off the back of a tremendous victory in the Europa League last Thursday.

In truth, it was an easy day at the office for the Gers, who cruised into a 2-0 half-time lead against Dundee after Connor Goldson’s strike and James Tavernier’s penalty.

The second half was similarly comfortable as Fashion Sakala added a third goal late on, and Rangers now have a last-four clash to anticipate in the middle of next month.

### The Latest: Campbell praises Ryan Kent

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/JordanC1107/status/1503048767439839237?s=20&t=Zarp5sz40IeozISYvU73YQ) during the match as he provided updates, Campbell singled out Kent’s intensity as indicative of the team’s impressive overall performance, also giving credit to the 25-year-old’s team-mates.

The journalist tweeted: “Rangers have been really, really good here. They’re carving through Dundee in different ways, getting down the sides and linking up well around Morelos. Best domestic performance in a while, probably best summed up by Kent’s intensity today. All of them at it.”

### The Verdict: Multiple trophy dream still on

Goals may have been [hard to come by](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ryan-kent/leistungsdaten/spieler/279457) for Kent recently but his performances [have still been quite solid](https://www.sofascore.com/player/ryan-kent/604838), and today was no exception.

It has the potential to be a memorable final two months of the season for Rangers, who are still battling across three competitions. Van Bronckhorst’s men are just [three points adrift](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/scottish-premiership/tabelle/wettbewerb/SC1) of Celtic in the Premiership title race, also leading Red Star Belgrade 3-0 after the first leg of their Europa League last 16 tie.

Incredibly, the Gers haven’t tasted Scottish Cup glory [since 2009](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/rangers-fc/erfolge/verein/124), so going all the way in the competition would feel sweet, especially if more silverware comes their way as well. Performances like this from Kent, and indeed the team as a whole, should go a long way towards ending the season on a high.
