Liam Boyce in Hearts 'all on the line' Europa League rally cry ahead of FC Zurich return

Liam Boyce has delivered a Hearts Europa League rally cry ahead of the Tynecastle return against FC Zurich.

Robbie Neilson's men will run out in front of a packed home crowd next week well in the tie and full of optimism following a 2-1 defeat to the Swiss champions last night. Lawrence Shankland gave the visitors the ideal start by smashing a low penalty into the back of the net but the hosts turned the game on its head before the interval.

Hearts striker Boyce was brought on in the final quarter of the match and he admits it is 'all on the line' against FC Zurich in the capital next week. He says the opposition were what he and his team-mates expected and is in 100 percent belief that they can turn the tie around and create a historic night under the lights in Gorgie. On his analysis of the game and looking towards the return meeting, Boyce said: "We've come away from a game against the Swiss champions and we have come away still in the tie. We can now take it home and play in front of our own fans so we have something to look forward to next week.
