match thread (image) [FT] Rangers 3 - 1 Hearts (Kent 3, Morelos 13, Arfield 32)

[alexscottislegend 2,068]

Hearts have Ikpeazu back and have named a defensive formation, or at least one without natural wide men. 1-0 will be a decent result for us.

Some whispers that Barisic has caught the flu and Grezda was seen in hospital.

 

We "look" a bit predictable when picking the same side (quite often), but the quality of the players is better than last season, so there ...

 

You would hope that we change formation or players sooner than usual though, if things don't go according to plan.

I suspect Hearts will come to defend and try to nick something on the break. An early goal or two for us will knock that on the head.

He'll be a handful and a different type of test for our central defence.

 

We need to start with a decent tempo but not be careless in possession.

 

Hearts players will be out to wind up Morelos, don't bite Alfredo, score goals.

 

Might need some patience today.

Yep, even their fans have been talking about the need to wind him up.

Can some kind soul keep us updated as I have only the BBC with no commentary! Time for us to end this stand-off - all we get are texts.

Well done Morelos.

Well done Morelos.

What did he do? Assist?

Oh... Yes. 

 

Free-kick whipped in, Hearts pushed up so Morelos had the ball in acres of space with just the 'keeper to beat; he lays it off to Kent to walk it in to an open net.

 

He could've went himself, but makes sure by passing it. 

 

1-0. 

[Rousseau 9,382]

McGregor has had to make a couple of very good saves. 

 

It's strangely end to end.
