1. Zdenek Zlamal - 7
Hesitated coming out for the opening goal. Bizarre moment when he opted to head a bouncing ball in his box rather than catch it. Couple of important saves in the second half, especially one from Hylton.

2. Michael Smith - 6
Defensively excellent, not the greatest of games in an attacking sense. Got into a number of crossing opportunities but too often sent them towards Gillespie in the Motherwell goal.

3. Craig Halkett - 5
An error for the opening goal when Chris Long dispossessed him. Steadied afterwards but still guilty of the mistake which put Hearts in a difficult position.

4. Clevid Dikamona - 6
The centre-back came up with a few solid defensive moments but took too long on the ball at times. Tried to score with a free-kick from 40 yards.
