How the Hearts players rated in the 3-0 win over Cove Rangers with one player standing out

Hearts made it six points from six in the Premier Sports Cup with a confident and comfortable performance against Cove Rangers.

Andy Halliday opened the scoring with a near 30-year daisy cutter before Liam Boyce added a second before half-time. Gary Mackay-Steven completed the scoring with a fizzing shot from the edge of the box after the interval.

There were 2,000 fans in attendance to witness their first Hearts game at Tynecastle since March 2020 and they would have been happy with what they saw.
