Ryan happy to net but gutted he didn't win it

NOD BAD AT ALL Astley, third right, after scoring his header

- BY SCOTT MCDERMOTT

RYAN ASTLEY scored the goal of his life at Ibrox - but was still devastated he didn't bag a winner.

The Welsh defender was outstanding in Dundee’s 1-1 draw with Rangers and gave Steven Pressley's side a shock lead with a second-half header.

Astley hailed it as the best goal of his career so far and was able to celebrate it with family in the Dark Blues away end.

But after James Tavernier had levelled for Gers with a late penalty, Astley had a golden opportunity to grab victory for Pressley’s Dark Blues.

His effort flashed wide at the death and the 23-year-old admits he was gutted not to seal a memorable three points for Dundee.

Astley said: “I know, I had the chance to win it. I'm going to watch that back - I still feel I should have scored so it’s quite disappointing.
