Glasgow Rangers beat Hearts 2-1 at Ibrox yesterday.

Rangers boss Graeme Murty spoke to reporters after his side’s 2-1 win over Hearts at Ibrox yesterday, and responded to criticism made regarding supposed disparity amongst the dressing room, as quoted by the Scotsman.

The Gers victory over Hearts, coupled with Celtic’s defeat to Hibernian means that Murty’s men have kept the Scottish Premiership title race alive for another week at least, with 10 points now separating them from Brendan Rodgers’ side, with four games remaining.

Rangers have received heavy criticism over this past week, after their 4-0 hammering by Celtic in the Scottish Cup semi final eight days ago.

Murty, though, insisted that the dressing room is United, after their 2-1 win over Hearts, as quoted by the Scotsman:

“It shows the dressing room is united. A lot of people outwith our dressing room have said a lot of things without knowing too much. But, we have remained focused and just concentrated on the display.”

Murty’s side at least showed some fight and passion against the Edinburgh outfit – two qualities that were conspicuous in their absence in the Old Firm Derby last week.

Next up for the Glasgow giants is another clash with their bitter rivals Celtic on Sunday, and a win at Parkhead really would get the Gers fans dreaming that they could pip the Hoops to the league title.
