Versatile defender Calvin Bassey has spoken of his happiness at scoring his first professional goal for Glasgow Rangers in their 4-0 rout of Falkirk on Sunday night.
On a personal level, his finest moment in a Rangers jersey came on the half-hour mark when he smashed the rebound into the roof of the net after Cedric Itten's header was saved by goalkeeper Morrison.
Signed from Premier League club Leicester City, Bassey was in action for 384 minutes spread across nine matches before opening his account for the Light Blues.
"It is a good feeling and I just give thanks for the opportunity to be able to play for this amazing club," Bassey said to Rangers TV.
"I just need to keep my head down and keep on working. There are things I could have done better - I'm obviously happy for my goal but I am just trying to improve as a player every single day".
Predominantly a left-back, Bassey was deployed at center back by manager Steven Gerrard against Falkirk, a role he used to play during his time with the academy team of Leicester City.
