  3. 'Referee missed four major decisions'

    HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Allan Preston
    BBC Scotland summariser on Sportsound

    What we've got is an incompetent referee. He's missed the foul on Sean Clare, he should have given Rangers a penalty as well, he's missed a Hearts penalty and a hand ball from Edmundson, and he's not given a second yellow for Damour's hand ball. He's missed things time after time. Why is the guy refereeing at this level? That's four major decisions.

  4. HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    How will Steven McLean bounce back in this second half? He must know he's had one in the first 45 minutes.

  5. HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Without that drama, we would have had precious little to talk about at half-time.

  7. 'What's the score, Steven?'

  8. 'Are we watching beach volleyball?'

    HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Tom English
    BBC Scotland's chief sports writer

    Rangers should've had a penalty earlier in the half, but the scenes at the end of the half are just crazy. It was clearly a handball by Edmundson, but it was the clearest penalty you'd see prior to that. Are we watching beach volleyball out there?

  9. Confusion reigns

    HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    We literally didn't know if the goal had stood for a full minute as the players trudged up the tunnel. Farcical. Anyway, it's ultimately the correct decision.

    However, referee Steven McLean has missed two pretty clear penalty calls, one for each side, in that first half.

  10. 'There's no monitor down here'

    HT: Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Brian McLauchlin
    BBC Sport Scotland

    I know for a fact [fourth official] Willie Collum hasn't seen a monitor. There's no monitor down here in the technical area and he hasn't seen it. It should have been a penalty before the disallowed goal, but the Hearts player threw both hands towards the ball.

  11. Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Right. It's still goalless. Hearts had the ball in the back of the net courtesy of Loic Damour, but he's basically used two hands to push it into the net! He's already been booked, too.

    It seemed the goal had stood, Rangers were going mental and finally after some consultation with the officials it was chalked off.

    Just before that Rangers defender George Edmundson clearly handled the ball in the box, but no penalty was given.

    Got all that? My, drama after a fairly tepid first half.

  12. 'Chaos'

    Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Neil McCann
    Former Hearts & Rangers winger on BBC Sportsound

    This is absolute chaos.

  13. HALF-TIME- Hearts 0-0 Rangers

  14. We literally don't know the score...Hearts have the ball in the net, but was it a handball?

  15. Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Hearts have a free-kick right on the edge of the box...

  16. CLOSE!

    Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    James Tavernier curls in a delicious cross, which is cut out by Craig Halkett, but it falls to Ryan Jack who clatters a volley towards goal and it goes just a few inches wide. Rangers' best chance so far.

  17. Souttar update

    Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Brian McLauchlin
    BBC Sport Scotland

    It is an Achilles injury for John Souttar, it's a different foot this time. It looks like it's going to be a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

  18. Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Steven Naismith flicks another header towards goal, which goes just wide. He was offside anyway, though.

    Fair to say this isn't a classic.

  19. 'A penalty without a doubt'

    Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Allan Preston
    BBC Scotland summariser on Sportsound

    What a period of play. It should have been a penalty kick, without a doubt. I think the referee's put himself in a difficult position because he hasn't given the foul against Sean Clare, so he couldn't give the penalty.

  20. YELLOW CARD - Loic Damour (Hearts)

    Hearts 0-0 Rangers

    Damour goes in the book for the latest foul on Ryan Kent, who's been really bright in the last 10 minutes or so. The Hearts midfielder tugged him back.
