Borna Barisic slammed by Rangers legend for kicking the ball at baying Hearts supporters

Borna Barisic drew criticism from Hearts fans and former players in Rangers' 3-0 win over the Jambos on Wednesday evening – by kicking the ball at a section of the Tynecastle support after they heckled him throughout the match.

Rangers took the share of the spoils in the capital city with a brace from Colombian striker Alfredo Morelos coming either side of a Malik Tillman strike just before half time, and it could have been a cricket score had VAR not regularly intervened and another host of spurned chances on top of that.

The travelling support were in party mode as they cruised to victory against Robbie Neilson's men, though a couple of incidents involving Morelos and Barisic caught the eye. The striker was bizarrely criticised by Neil McCann for celebrating in front of the Jambos faithful, and it quickly came to light thereafter that Barisic had kicked the ball into a section of the Tynecastle crowd that had goaded him a couple of times earlier in the evening whilst taking corners in the first half.
