    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    Nikola Katic is the latest of a long, long list of players to be booked after he fouls Sean Clare. It's a dangerous free-kick for the hosts. Can they muster something?

    This is when Rangers have to step up and show they have the minerals to win the title. When you go to places and it's tough.

    That was a lovely counter attack by Hearts. Andy Irving intercepts a pass on the edge of his own box and charges forward. He feeds Ikpeazu in the left-hand channel and the big strike rampages into the box, but his shot is well blocked by Ryan Kent.

    Sean Clare has gone into the book now, it's very bitty. The Hearts winger has just fouled Borna Barisic again and is treading on wafer thin ice.

    Finally, a half chance. Connor Goldson gets his head to a cross but can't guide it on target. Both sides are toiling a bit here in terms of creativity.

    There's 10 minutes left, will we have a winner?

  6. YELLOW CARD- Alfredo Morelos (Rangers)published at 78 mins

    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    Now Alfedo Morelos is booked for a trip on Uche Ikpeazu. That's the Colombian's first yellow in the league this term. His discipline has improved immeasurably since last season when he was a liability for Rangers.

    Meanwhile, Andy Irving is on in place of Jake Mulraney for Hearts.

  7. YELLOW CARDSpublished at 76 mins

    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    The Rangers captain James Tavernier and Hearts striker Steven MacLean both go into the book after tussling in the build up to a free-kick. Both were at it, probably a fair decision.

    Not for me. It was great play. But the defender can't just move out of the road and say 'have a shot at goal'.

  9. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 74 mins

    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    Scott Arfield feels he should have had a penalty there! A superb Rangers counter ends with the Canada international slipping the ball to Morelos and his return finds Arfield, who collides with Aaron Hickey. Kevin Clancy shakes his head.

    Connor Goldson does well to block Uche Ikpeazu's shot after the Hearts striker controlled a throw in and managed to turn towards goal.

    This is anybody's game really, who will step up?

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 71 mins

    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    Hearts' goalscorer Ryotaro Meshino is coming off and on comes veteran striker Steven MacLean. It was a fine finish from Meshino in the first half, but he's faded a bit in this second-half.

    Hearts still look pretty compact and they are doing their jobs properly. It looks like Craig Levein's had a word with Clare at half time to tell him that he's got to put a shift and the yards in, we'll see if it continues.

    We're almost into the 12th round of this Ikpeazu vs Katic bout. This time the Rangers defender wins the free-kick.

    It looks as though Greg Stewart could be coming off the bench for Rangers shortly.

    There is no doubt Rangers' defence has improved. It was their Achilles heel last year, but Katic looks like a proper defender now and they have good options.

    There's a glimpse of exactly what Ryan Kent can do. He jinks in from the left brilliantly, but his shot is wayward and sails into the stand. The former Liverpool winger is so direct though, and they'll hope that can cause Hearts a few problems.

    I don't think Sheyi Ojo does enough with his ability. He's so quick, he's direct, but he's not enough of an attacking threat for Rangers. He can offer so much more.

  17. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 63 mins

    Hearts 1-1 Rangers

    This is what Rangers fans have been longing to see. Ryan Kent makes his return from injury off the bench having picked up a hamstring problem against Livingston a few weeks back. He replaces Sheyi Ojo, who has been below par this afternoon.

    Rangers now have a free-kick in a dangerous position after Sheyi Ojo takes a tumble. There was minimal contact from Michael Smith there but Kevin Clancy gives it.

    The cross then comes in and there's some appeals for a handball in the box by Hearts, nothing given as it seemed to hit Ikpeazu's chest.

    Sean Clare, or Lionel Messi? The Hearts winger dribbles through a ruck of blue bodies and then tries to back-heel it off one of them and out for a corner. Unfortunately for him, he got the last touch and it's a goal kick.

    Ooft, Steven Davis's volley flicks off a defender and goes wide. Rangers are starting to waken up a little, and after another corner Alfredo Morelos then volleys one into a defender.

    Hearts get a free-kick though and another spell of pressure comes to an end.
