Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have a hearty player in Ryan Hardie, but for how much longer?
It has been a hectic last 24 hours for on-loan Rangers ace Ryan Hardie.
The 21-year-old hitman helped Scotland Under-21s to a 1-1 draw away to Andorra on Friday, with the Gers man setting up Lewis Morgan for the equaliser.
But the Rangers man flew from Andorra to make the bench at Dumfries and still had enough in the tank to not only play for Livingston today, but score in the thrilling 3-3 draw away to Queen of the South.
Hardie came off the bench on 57 minutes and within three minutes scored what looked to be the winning goal for Livingston, who had come from two goals down, but Nikolay Todorov grabbed a last-minute equaliser for the hosts.
Nevertheless, Hardie, whose Rangers contract expires this summer, found himself getting plenty of praise on Twitter for his commitment to David Hopkin’s side – including from Ibrox team-mate Greg Docherty.
Despite what he did, it remains to be seen if Hardie has done enough since joining Livingston in January to secure a new contract at Rangers.
Six goals in eight Championship outings is a very decent record, but you wonder if it’ll be enough to see him compete with Alfredo Morelos and perhaps Jason Cummings next term.
