Rangers were shattered against Hearts in the William Hill Premiership on Monday.

The Gers travelled to Tynecastle Park on 4 May and getting three points against the league leaders was pivotal to keeping Danny Rohl’s title hopes alive, but the visitors lost 2-1.

Dujon Sterling scored the opener as his deflected shot found the back of the net and the Light Blues were the dominant side going into the break.

Derek McInnes made a change at halftime and completely changed the tide of the match, with Stephen Kingsley scoring the equaliser and Lawrence Shankland subsequently giving the Jam Tarts the lead.

Rohl had to get the better of McInnes, but with the result at Tynecastle Park, the Govan side have suffered another monumental blow in the title race.

Andreas Skov Olsen continues to struggle in Rangers loss vs Hearts

Andreas Skov Olsen came into the Gers with huge expectations in the winter transfer window, but the VfL Wolfsburg loanee has undoubtedly flopped.

The Danish winger surprisingly started at Tynecastle Park, but was quiet for the most part and wasn’t switched on defensively when the Jam Tarts found the equaliser.

On most occasions, the 26-year-old forward found himself in the final third, but his decision-making was poor, playing the ball back to a teammate instead of taking on opposition defenders.

Skov Olsen hasn’t done enough to warrant a permanent move to the Glaswegian outfit and he once again failed to take his opportunity at Gorgie.

Mikey Moore carries Danny Rohl’s attacks at Tynecastle Park

Mikey Moore has shouldered the burden of creativity at Rangers in recent months and did what he does best against Hearts, but was let down by his teammates.

The Tottenham Hotspur loanee carried the ball forward and gave Derek McInnes’ team something to think about whenever he had possession.

Unlike Skov Olsen, the 18-year-old was direct and the only attacker who gave the Light Blues any glimmer of hope of getting something out of the game.

Rohl surprisingly took Moore and Nicolas Raskin off in the 75th minute and the German manager clearly made a mistake with that decision.
