Hide AdHad a couple of decent delivery and got into a bit of a feud with Daniel Armstrong, but not the best of his performances. Booked.
DM – James Jeggo – 8
His combativeness helped Hibs win the midfield battle and played a significant part in the second goal.
DM – CJ Egan-Riley – 8
Kept things simple as he moved the play around the park. Saved a late goal with a clearance off the line.
MR – Ewan Henderson – 8
One of his better showings this season in an unfamiliar role. Unlucky to have a shot cleared off the line. A quiet second half before substitution.
AM – Josh Campbell – 8

Hide AdHad an outstanding first half where he was at the heart of everything good Hibs did. Unlucky not to have a good or an assist. Tailed off a bit after the break.
ML – Aiden McGeady – 7
Got an assist in his half-an-hour and played another couple of dangerous balls. Pulled up after taking another touch on the break instead of playing through Elie Youan.
FC – Elie Youan – 8
Overplayed at times, drawing groans of frustration from the crowd, but was a constant menace and displayed some nice tricks and touches.
