MusaSky Sports has sent social media into a frenzy after releasing the “X-rated” pitchside audio of Rangers forward Mikey Moore following his disallowed goal against Hibernian. The clip, which has immediately gone viral across X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok, captures the raw, expletive-laden frustration of the young star as his 76th-minute strike was overturned by VAR at Easter Road.
The incident occurred during a tense 0-0 draw on February 1, 2026, a result that left Danny Röhl’s side six points adrift of league leaders Hearts. Moore, who believed he had secured a massive three points in the title race, was seen in a heated exchange with the officiating crew after the assistant’s flag stayed down, only for the VAR room to intervene for a marginal offside.
In the audio captured by Sky’s sensitive directional microphones, Moore can be heard directed several “X-rated” remarks toward the refereeing team, questioning the consistency of the lines being drawn. The footage shows the 18-year-old loanee being pulled away by teammates as he continued his verbal assault long after play had resumed.
While the Scottish FA recently issued an apology for the “procedural breakdown” during the review, the viral audio has shifted the focus toward player conduct. Supporters have been divided; many Rangers fans have defended Moore’s passion given the high stakes of the title race, while others have called for the SFA to take disciplinary action for the “foul and abusive language” caught on camera.
The clip has already amassed millions of views, with “Mickey Moore Audio” trending globally. As the fallout from the Easter Road stalemate continues, the Premier League and SPFL are reportedly reviewing their pitchside microphone protocols to prevent similar outbursts from being broadcast in the future. For Moore, the viral moment has cemented his status as a firebrand in the Glasgow spotlight, though it may yet result in a domestic suspension.
