Rangers player ratings as Scott Wright states his starting case and Danilo dazzles again

Rangers booked their spot in the Viaplay Cup Final against Aberdeen with a 3-1 victory over Hearts at Hampden this afternoon. Skipper James Tavernier led the way with a double as he netted the opener from the spot after 50 minutes before smashing home a stunning free kick for the clincher after sub Scott Wright had fired home a second.

Hearts pulled one back from a Lawrence Shankland penalty after Stephen Kingsley was felled by sub Ben Davies - with ref Nick Walsh over-ruling his initial decision to show Kingsley a second yellow for diving after a VAR review.

But Rangers ran out comfortable winners against a Jambos side that spent much of the 90 minutes on the back foot. Philippe Clement can now look forward to a return to Hampden next month for a final just three weeks after taking over at Ibrox. Record Sport runs the rule over Rangers players at the national stadium this afternoon.

JACK BUTLAND 7 - Had the cigars out in the first half. But strong save from Kent header, excellent touch over from Kingsley effort and low save from Oda after the break.

JAMES TAVERNIER 8 - Another massive afternoon for the set piece specialist skipper. Buried penalty with class and produced a stunning free kick to settle matters. Outstanding.

CONNOR GOLDSON 7 - Handled the threat of Shankland and Vargas with ease as Rangers limited Hearts to scraps before late penalty.

LEON BALOGUN 7 - Preferred to Ben Davies and won some important headers in his box early on, took a sore one blocking Sibbick effort but recovered to stroll game.

BORNA BARISIC 7 - Back from injury and enjoyed easy afternoon defensively while providing the usual outlet going forward on left. DRew late save from Clark.

RYAN JACK 8 - Neat touches around Hearts box helped
