Alex Rae reacts to Rangers win v Hearts, praises Joe Aribo
Alex Rae has taken to Twitter to express his reaction after Rangers won their Scottish Premiership clash against Hearts on Sunday.
The Gers won 2-0 at Tynecastle, where two first-half goals from Alfredo Morelos and Joe Aribo sealed the tie for the visitors.
Hearts created some very good chances but Allan McGregor made some excellent saves during the game.
Rae has praised Fashion Sakala for his contribution to the first goal, and raved about Aribo for his goal.
The BT Sport pundit wrote on Twitter: “Full time. Hearts 0-2 Rangers.
“Very professional performance from the Gers to extend the lead at the top to seven points.
“Morelos opened the scoring after great play from Sakala. Aribo with sensational goal after 60yard pass from Goldson to secure the points.”
Professional
Rae is absolutely spot on here.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst has made a strong start at Rangers, where he has picked up five wins and a draw in his first six games in charge.
What has been really pleasing is that Rangers have managed to pick up points from games where they haven’t been at their best.
Hearts created some very good chances while the Gers haven’t been entirely free-flowing in their approach. But they did just enough to pick up the crucial points.
Once again, Aribo has been simply outstanding. He has been the most consistent performer for the Gers this season, and it seems he has taken his game to a whole new level.
Under the Dutchman, he is enjoying a lot more freedom to join the attack. He has scored six goals in the league, including three under Van Bronckhorst already.
