Hearts made a rapid begin, with debutant James Penrice going shut as he burst into the field and compelled Gers goalkeeper Jack Butland right into a superb cease at his close to put up.
The hosts continued piling on the stress as Yan Dhanda struck the crossbar with a trendy effort.
Rangers appeared extra assured after the break with Cyriel Dessers heading towards the nook of the crossbar and put up early on after a scrumptious left-footed cross from Tom Lawrence, who then went shut himself with a dipping volley from outdoors the field, which Zander Clark needed to acrobatically save.
Laurence Shankland drove into the world with twenty minutes to go, however he was thwarted by an onrushing Butland, although Rangers couldn’t any inroads going the opposite method.
