📝 Rangers have announced the signing of defender John Souttar on a pre-contract agreement from Heart of Midlothian. The 25 year old Scotland international will join the club officially in the summer.

Rangers began one of the biggest weeks in their history with a youthful XI easing to victory over Hearts in the Scottish Premiership at Tynecastle.

Hearts led through Peter Haring's strike, seven days before the two sides meet again in the Scottish Cup final.

But Rangers, who take on Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday in the Europa League final in Seville, fought back through Cedric Itten and Alex Lowry.

And 19-year-old Cole McKinnon scored from the bench on his debut.

"We dominated against a very good side with a very young team," said Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst. "I'm very proud."

Hearts end the league season with just one point from four games, but what will concern manager Robbie Neilson is that forward Liam Boyce lasted just 12 minutes before hobbling off injured.

However defenders John Souttar and Craig Halkett both made late appearances after lengthy injury lay-offs ahead of the trip to Hampden.

Reaction & how it happened

Billed as a cup final rehearsal, both managers made 15 changes between them from midweek, with Rangers naming a bench that had an average age of 20.

The likelihood is the sides that walk out in Seville and Hampden next week will be much different from the ones that emerged from the Tynecastle tunnel, but there was no lack of tempo as Scott Arfield twice threatened to give the visitors an early lead.

It remained lively. Steven Davis shot wide for Rangers, while at the other end goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin had to race out and slide tackle Gary Mackay-Steven, who had broken through the visitors' backline.

Ellis Simms was the main cause of angst for the Rangers defence, and the forward was pivotal as Hearts took the lead.

The on-loan Everton man latched onto Josh Ginnelly's pass, held it up, then laid the ball off to Haring who cracked a laser from the edge of the box and into the bottom left-hand corner.

But the lead was short lived. Itten had a low shot deflected over the bar, but raced to the front post to meet the corner and headed in his first league goal of the season.

Rangers were always a threat on the counter attack. Amad Diallo shot over the bar after a neat one-two with Aaron Ramsey, before Lowry scored his first league goal for Rangers.

The 18-year-old collected the ball out wide on the left and planted a classy finish beyond Gordon.

As Barrie McKay livened up so did Hearts, and he had two good chances in a minute. First he juggled the ball then flashed a left-foot shot just over the bar, before racing onto a cut-back and firing just wide of a post.

McKay shot over again after Nathan Atkinson elected to pass rather than shoot, but then Rangers' youngsters took over to show the future is bright in Govan.

Charlie McCann looked like he would burst the net, only to pull his shot wide. Then Cole McKinnon - 20 minutes after coming on for his debut - lashed in a fine finish from the edge of the box to make it three.

Tony Weston then headed wide at the back post as Hearts were opened up again.

Hearts did have the last chance when McLaughlin pushed wide a Toby Sibbick shot, but Neilson's side will need much better when it really matters in seven days time.

What did we learn?

Both managers would have wanted to get through the 90 minutes without injuries to key players. Neilson is beginning to get many of his players back fit and now has options ahead of the Hampden showpiece.

Boyce's injury will be a worry, but replacement Ginnelly was one of the hosts' better players and may well have played himself into the cup final starting XI. Haring, McKay and Simms have all surely done enough to start the final, too.

It may well be a case that no players who started for Rangers will start in Seville, but in Lowry they have a player who could be a big part of the team over the next few seasons.

The classy 18-year-old delivered a goal and an assist in the first half, and looked comfortable on the ball every time it arrived at his feet.

What did they say?

Hearts manager Robbie Neilson: "I just thought we weren't at it; it had that end of season feel. But we've had a brilliant season so far.

"I could see a bit of rustiness in some of the players that came back too. It's about next week now. We've got to bring the energy that we didn't bring today."

Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst: "I was really impressed by the win and the way we played.

WYou couldn't see the changes we had made, especially with so many youngsters on the pitch. They performed really well."

What's next?

The two sides face each other again at Hampden next Saturday in the Scottish Cup final (15:00 BST), but before that Rangers take on Eintracht Frankfurt in Seville on Wednesday in the Europa League final (20:00).

Scotland: Sunderland striker Ross Stewart, Hearts defender Craig Halkett & St Johnstone keeper Zander Clark called up

Craig Halkett has performed well in a back three for Hearts this season

Sunderland's Ross Stewart and Hearts' Craig Halkett have been called up by Scotland for the first time.

St Johnstone goalkeeper Zander Clark will also join the squad to replace the injured David Marshall.

Stewart has scored 22 goals in 38 games for the English League One side this season.

Halkett will cover central defence after Scott McKenna withdrew, with Liam Cooper and John Souttar sidelined.

Both first-time call ups could make their debut in the friendly with Poland on Thursday, with Scotland then playing either Austria or Wales the following Tuesday.

Meanwhile, captain Andy Robertson is a doubt after missing Liverpool's FA Cup quarter-final win against Nottingham Forest with illness.

Stewart played for Ayrshire junior clubs Ardeer Thistle and Kilwinning Rangers after several years in the pro youth system with St Mirren, Celtic and Partick Thistle.

He then earned a move back to the senior game with Albion Rovers and had stints with St Mirren and Alloa Athletic before coming to prominence with Ross County, where he scored 28 times in 82 appearances to earn a move south.

Stewart on rediscovering his love of football playing juniors

"I broke my nose that day. I can just remember being sparked out and getting called all the names under the sun. There was blood everywhere, my nose was pointing sideways, and you're getting called a 'diving you-know-what' and all that." Read more.

Halkett has been a key member of the Hearts back three which has performed strongly to help the Tynecastle side to third in the Scottish Premiership.

Scotland are playing the Poles instead of their postponed World Cup play-off semi-final against Ukraine.

The game will be played at Hampden with £10 from each ticket sold going to Unicef's response in Ukraine following Russia's invasion of the country.

The Scottish FA have announced 25,000 tickets have been sold already for the match.

Poland had been scheduled to play the Russians on 24 March, but have been given a bye into a final with Czech Republic or Sweden on 29 March.

Scotland and Ukraine hope to meet in June, with the winners facing either Wales or Austria.

Those two sides meet in Cardiff on Thursday, with the losers hosting Scotland in a friendly on 29 March.

Dundee United 2-2 Heart of Midlothian: Craig Halkett header earns visitors a draw

Nicky Clark's second-half penalty put Dundee United 2-1 ahead but Craig Halkett levelled for Hearts

Craig Halkett salvaged a point for Hearts despite them losing five players to injury in a bruising Scottish Premiership clash with Dundee United.

Liam Boyce flashed in an opener inside the first minute for Hearts, but Liam Smith's stunning strike levelled.

Nicky Clark's penalty just after the hour turned the game, but Halkett ensured United's winless league run stretches to four games.

And that means Tam Courts' side fall to seventh in the table.

With just three games left before the split, United face a battle to move back up the table as they chase a European spot, with Ross County moving ahead of them on goal difference.

Hearts are still 13 points clear in third place, but injuries to Gary Mackay-Steven, Cammy Delvin, Alex Cochrane, John Souttar and Nathan Atkinson will be a concern to manager Robbie Neilson.

Rangers 5-0 Heart of Midlothian: Aaron Ramsey makes debut in thumping win

Alfredo Morelos scored a double and set up another as Rangers powered past Hearts

Aaron Ramsey made his much-anticipated Rangers debut as they thumped Hearts to prevent Celtic extending their one-point Scottish Premiership lead.

The hosts, chastened by a midweek Old Firm derby defeat, responded to Celtic's 4-0 beating of Motherwell with a rousing Ibrox victory of their own.

Alfredo Morelos netted once in each half and teed up Glen Kamara to score as Hearts spurned big chances.

Scott Arfield added a well-taken fourth before Fashion Sakala's late fifth.

Ramsey, the Juventus loanee and marquee January addition, was given the final 14 minutes by Giovanni van Bronckhorst, and with his side 4-0 up, could scarcely have dreamed of an easier debut against the side now 16 points back in third spot.

This was a game in which Morelos underlined his grave importance to Rangers, a day when the striker's influence, dynamism and class told again and again.

In three matches without Morelos - on international duty but watching Colombia from the stands rather than playing his part on the pitch - Rangers have laboured. They have missed their attacking fulcrum dearly. Many of the 50,000 inside Ibrox on Sunday will have wondered why Colombia took him halfway across the world not only to leave him out of their line-ups, but out of the match-day squads altogether.

In any case, Van Bronckhorst will rejoice at his return - not least after the meek and wounding nature of the Celtic Park on Wednesday.

Morelos laced a bustling performance with bright flashes of subtlety. His goals were ruthlessly dispatched, the first stemming from a sumptuous Calvin Bassey pass and Ryan Kent delivery; the second an emphatic left-foot curler from the edge of the box.

If it was fortuitous that Morelos' attempted through-ball ricocheted straight back to his feet, then the striker did enough to earn his stroke of luck, and was deadly enough to seize it. The third, coolly taken by Kamara, was a product of Morelos' terrific flick.

His link-up play throughout was first-class. He had a more embryonic role in the final two goals. He repeatedly put Hearts' central defence - a defence still devoid of Craig Halkett and Rangers-bound John Souttar - under duress. He bamboozled them with his footwork, weaving pretty patterns with Kent and James Tavernier. He steamrolled Taylor Moore en route to the box when only Craig Gordon denied him a hat-trick. The Hearts stopper did so again with virtually the final act of the match.

Morelos' second, though, was a pivotal moment. For if Rangers had come flying out of the traps in the first half, they began the second still asleep in them.

Trailing 1-0, Hearts could have been level when Nathaniel Atkinson could not convert a glorious Stephen Kingsley ball, and really should have been when Bassey's terribly weak header fell short of Allan McGregor, and Cammy Devlin scooped wide. Ibrox grew volatile and riven with angst, much of it aimed at poor Willie Collum, the referee.

But with one sweep of his left boot, Morelos eased the anxiety boiling in home ranks. With a twitch of his right, he sent Kamara screaming into the box, where the Finn dummied one flailing defender and slotted home.

Rangers applied lashings of icing to their cake late on, Arfield finishing at the second attempt after a super Kent pick-out, and Sakala converting with six minutes left.

Beating Hearts - even beating them 5-0 - does not salve the wounds inflicted by Celtic, but after flat-lining on Wednesday, Rangers' pulse is strong again.

Liam Boyce missed the chance to level the game from the spot in the second half

Celtic ensured the gap at the Scottish Premiership summit remained at four points after surviving a second-half comeback from Hearts at Tynecastle.

The visitors took a two-goal lead into the break after Reo Hatate's long-range drive was followed by a first-half second from Giorgos Giakoumakis.

The hosts improved after the interval as Liam Boyce pulled one back before passing up the chance to equalise from the spot 11 minutes later.

Despite defeat, Hearts remain third.

But the loss will sting for Robbie Neilson's side, who were well worth a draw after rallying in the second half.

This win - and Boyce's penalty miss in isolation - could be pinpointed as a massive turning point in the title race come May, providing Ange Postecoglou's men can overthrow Rangers at the top.

More to follow.

Soi kèo Huddersfield vs Stoke, 02h45 ngày 29/1

Hành trang của các cầu thủ Huddersfield khi bước vào mùa giải năm nay là vị trí thứ 20/24 đội ở chiến dịch 2020/21, chỉ hơn 6 điểm so với nhóm xuống hạng. Đó là lý do người hâm mộ không hề đánh giá cao đội chủ sân John Smith’s, cũng như sớm gạt Huddersfield ra khỏi danh sách các ứng cử viên tranh tranh tấm vé lên hạng.

Nhưng màn trình diễn ấn tượng của Huddersfield trong khoảng hơn 1 tháng trở lại đây đã ít nhiều thay đổi định kiến của giới chuyên môn. Theo đó, Huddersfield bất bại liên tiếp 9 trận vừa qua trên mọi đấu trường với 5 chiến thắng. Không chỉ ghi tên mình vào vòng 4 FA Cup, Huddersfield còn leo một mạch lên vị trí thứ 6 trên bảng xếp hạng Hạng nhất Anh.

Bên phía đối diện, Stoke lại đang ở vào giai đoạn thấp điểm về phong độ. Các vị khách toàn thua 2 trận vừa qua và nếu tính rộng hơn thua 4/5 trận gần nhất ở sân chơi Hạng nhất. Hậu quả là thầy trò HLV M. O’Neill đã tụt xuống vị trí 11, kém 6 điểm so với chính Huddersfield nhưng đá ít hơn 1 trận. Do vậy, chiến thắng là  nhiệm vụ bắt buộc với Stoke ở cuộc chạm trán sắp tới.

Soi kèo Châu Á Huddersfield vs Stoke

Có thể thấy Huddersfield đang chấp 1/4 theo tỷ lệ bóng đá không phải là một tín hiệu tích cực, bởi với ưu thế sân nhà cùng phong độ tốt hơn hẳn thì họ xứng đáng được tin tưởng nhiều hơn. Hay nói cách khác, Huddersfield không phải là kèo thơm ở trận đấu này. Có một thống kê rất đáng chú ý, đó là Stoke thắng kèo 4/6 trận sân khách gần đây, đồng thời thắng kèo 6/8 trận đối đầu với Huddersfield.

Chọn: Stoke

Soi kèo Châu Âu Huddersfield vs Stoke

Phong độ của Huddersfield đang tốt hơn rất nhiều, nhưng Stoke lại cho thấy họ thực sự là khắc tinh với chủ nhà. Theo đó, Stoke thắng tới 5 và chỉ thua 1/8 trận đối đầu với Huddersfield. Khả năng tận dụng ưu thế sân nhà của Huddersfield cũng đang gặp vấn đề khi chỉ thắng 1/4 trận gần nhất tiếp khách tại John Smith's. Với khả năng chơi phản công lợi hại của mình, Stoke hoàn toàn có thể ra về với một chiến thắng.

Auchinleck Talbot 0-4 Hearts: Premiership side comfortably avoid shock

Hearts comfortably avoided a Scottish Cup fourth round shock by swatting aside sixth-tier side Auchinleck Talbot to reach the last 16.

The Ayrshire outfit have form for knocking SPFL sides out of the cup but were kept at arms length by their top-flight opponents, who were the victims of a shock at Brora Rangers last term.

Liam Boyce scored either side of the break to add to Andy Halliday's early header, then Peter Haring and Alex Cochrane ensured Hearts' place in the last 16.

Talbot - who play in the West of Scotland Premier League - put out Championship side Hamilton Academical in the third round and have regularly taken SPFL scalps in the last two decades.

It was no surprise then that Hearts boss Robbie Neilson picked a strong team, with John Souttar the only major absentee from their midweek league win due to injury, though talks continue about an expedited move to Rangers.

But despite Talbot's reputation for a shock, and home advantage on a tight park at Beechwood, Hearts got to grips with their task early and went in front when Barrie McKay picked out Halliday to head home on 14 minutes.

By that point Liam Boyce had already had a goal ruled out for offside, and then another chalked off for the same reason before the break when replays showed the Northern Irishman was clearly onside.

But he did get his goal before the half-time whistle, sending Talbot captain Andrew Leishman the wrong way after Chris Stafford was penalised for handball in the box.

The Premiership side's dominance continued and they effectively sealed their safe passage to the next round five minutes into the second half when Boyce glanced the ball into the bottom corner after a terrific run and cross to the back post by Halliday.

Talbot's Graham Wilson had a great chance to immediately pull a goal back and restore some hope but skied his effort from 10 yards, which proved the end of the home side's resistance.

Instead, Hearts comfortably got through the last half hour with Haring sweeping the ball into the top corner to cap a good move, before Cochrane tapped in Nathaniel Atkinson's cross to seal a professional display in the final 10 minutes.

Glasgow Rangers, 56?

It seems like years since rangers were crowned champions for the 55th time. Just over the half way point this season and there has been a ring of changes in the dug out and on the pitch, in all aspects, personnel, results, style and performance.

Gerrard is very much in the past now Gio has had 8 games and a number of weeks to work with and get to know the players himself. There does seem to be a new mood in the squad a feel to impress and fight for the shirt again which was lacking under Gerrards latter days. Currently 4 points clear of second place Celtic and still in the europa league things at ibrox in first glance do seems almost flawless but 4 points is only 2 bad results and it’s a very strong Dortmund team awaiting in Europe.

Does Gio know his strongest team? With the number of absentees you would assume he doesn’t but he has been getting a tune out of a number of players again. Kamara and Goodson were just 2 of many who you could accuse of coasting under Gerrard this season but not any more they seem eager to impress and performances have been a lot healthier just a bit more urgency and focus in them again.

The absentee list is a worry especially with the old firm game sneaking up and Dortmund loom in the knock out stages of Europe. Helander, jack, Aribo, Steve Davis, Arfield, Balogun, Roofe and now Kent all missing for one reason or another whether it’s the Afcon, suspension, covid or injuries. The sooner these players are available the sooner Gio can make decisions on players from first hand experience and then maybe he can figure out his best 11.

Nathan Patterson’s exit feels like the beginning of things to come, that type of money for a prospect could not be ignored and there has been whispers of interest in others in the playing squad which is only to be expected when the club has been winning games like they have these last 2 seasons. Many fans were sad to see Patterson leave but it’s the best bit of business Rangers have been able to move on in a decade. Too often have players left Ibrox for a pittance of their true value and if Rangers can continue with this model they could attract serious players to use them not just as a stage to attract from premier league clubs but a chance to win silverware also. Jermaine Defoe has said himself his only regret about Rangers was not singing sooner.

Rangers have already recruited highly rated versatile James Sands, also Hearts centre half John Souttar has signed a pre contract with the Ibrox giants with whispers he could make the move this window. There have been other rumours though right now that’s all they are though the one that has seemed to build a bit of momentum again and has never really gone away is Aberdeen’s Lewis Ferguson. He is arguably one of the best midfielders in the league but you would imagine cost Rangers an arm and a leg but with Arfields contract running done, Davis another year older and Jack’s fitness issues this one does seem to make the most sense, he is a sure thing and a massive rangers fan himself. Leon King has been promoted to the first team which is great to see, defence is an area where Rangers do seem strong on paper so they must think very highly of the 18 year old. Nathan Patterson has shown that there is a pathway to the first team at Ibrox and it’s up to these young players to walk it themselves.

The club is in a very good place and Gio does seem to be the right man for the job as Steven Gerrard did set the bar high Gio has walked into the club unfazed and knew exactly what was expected of him and his team. If he delivers another league title this season to the iconic trophy room not only will it cement Rangers as ‘being back’ it would look mighty good on Gios CV himself. Rangers are a huge club an institution and even though Scottish football has suffered from lack of funding over the years nobody can ignore the buzz at the Ibrox club. As much as Celtic have cruised almost effortlessly over almost a decade to title after title every single football fan would be hard pressed to say they didn’t miss a competitive Rangers team, it would seem they have gotten one. Glasgow is blue.

John Souttar: Rangers-bound defender 'available for Hearts until things change'

Robbie Neilson says John Souttar is "big and old enough to make sure his head's right"

John Souttar "will be available for selection until things change", says Hearts manager Robbie Neilson.

The defender has signed a pre-contract with Rangers and could move this month for a fee but Ibrox boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst expects a summer arrival.

Souttar, 25, and third-placed Hearts return to Scottish Premiership action at home to St Johnstone on Tuesday.

"The most important thing is the football club and Hearts and the team going forward," said Neilson.

"The objective is to get European football so we have to utilise the squad and play our best players and John is one of our best players so he will be available for selection until things change.

"This is a really important season for us. We're sitting in a great position. Yes, there will be negativity but at the end of the day, it's about the football club."

'He's reassured us that he'll give 100%'

After spending large parts of the past two seasons out injured, Souttar has been a mainstay in the Hearts team this year - scoring three goals in 22 games - and made a scoring return to the Scotland side against Denmark in November.

"I've spoken to John, he understands the situation," added Neilson. "He's big enough and old enough to make sure that his head's right. He's reassured us that he'll give 100% in training, which he has done. And 100% if selected."

Van Bronckhorst is pleased to have lined up "a very good defender", adding: "It is very important for us that we keep our Scottish identity.

"We have to wait on what will happen in this window, but as far as I know we welcome John in the summer."
