Robbie Neilson has expressed his disappointment over Hearts loss to Rangers as he says the 'bump in the road' will allow his side to learn going forward.
The Jambos went into their clash with the Light Blues on a ten game unbeaten run while Michael Beale's side arrived in the capital without a defeat in 12. The Ibrox side came out the traps from the first whistle and blew the home side away in a comfortable 3-0 win. The visitors also had a number of goals ruled out for offside with Zander Clark also making numerous top saves in the capital.
Neilson and Co are still sitting third and have a six point cushion over St Mirren - who have played a game less - in the race to finish best of the rest behind Celtic and Rangers. The Gorgie side won't have too much time to reflect on the loss with Dundee United making the trip to Tynecastle at the weekend with Hearts looking to bounce back immediately. It's then a Scottish Cup fifth round tie at Hamilton Accies with a last eight spot up for grabs.
