Hearts passed up the chance to go second after they lost 4-0 at home to Rangers.
Robbie Neilson’s men had the opportunity to go within two points of the summit if they could register a resounding victory at Tynecastle. But a disastrous first half saw them two goals down and reduced to ten men. They found themselves a goal down within five minutes when Antonio Colak netted with a header. Despite battling they were 2-0 on the 29 minute after a cool finish for the Rangers striker. And a poor challenge from Cammy Devlin saw him walk with Rabbi Matondo in a heap.
A more solid performance in the second half helped showed signs of promise but the Jambos found life difficult throughout the contest. A third blow was dealt by Alfredo Morelos followed by a 90th minute strike from Ryan Kent to pile on the agony. Here are three things we learned as Hearts suffered their first home defeat of the season.
