Hearts 2-1 Rangers: Kris Boyd and Chris Sutton criticise spirit from Danny Röhl's side as title hopes crumble

Rangers' heart and willingness to suffer has been called into question as Danny Röhl's side all but fell out of the Scottish Premiership title race in a 2-1 defeat to league leaders Hearts.

Knowing a win would move them just one point behind the Jambos and Celtic, Röhl's men took the lead in the first half through Dujon Sterling and looked in complete control at Tynecastle.

However, a second-half comeback spearheaded by Stephen Kingsley and Lawrence Shankland left Rangers seven points off the top, all but ending their hopes of claiming the title.

Defeat to Motherwell in the previous fixture already gave Rangers a mountain to climb, but with three games to go, the Ibrox outfit require a miracle to overturn the deficit.
