Won a penalty at one end and conceded one at the other.

Slotted in well on the left side of the back three but did have a shocker in the build-up to the Celtic penalty award which was reversed on a VAR check.

RWB – Lewis Miller – 8

Helped make it difficult for Celtic in the first half especially to try and play through the Hibs resistance.

MLC – Jake Doyle-Hayes – 8

Another with a very impressive return to the starting XI. Consistently got his foot in to win tackles and disrupt Celtic. Subbed after running out of steam.

LWB – Lewis Stevenson – 7

Defended well and composed in his passing down the left flank.

AM – Josh Campbell – 9

Absolutely everywhere. Worked himself into the ground, used the ball well when he got it and netted the penalty. Booked.

FC – Elie Youan – 5

His sending off was incredibly harsh, but he did struggle to keep possession during his time on the park and the first booking was a challenge he didn’t need to make.

Sub – Chris Cadden – 6

After a poor showing defensively against Rangers he was much more solid.

Sub – Matthew Hoppe – 6

Given a tough assignment to try and lead the line by himself.

Sub – Ewan Henderson – 6

Brought on shortly before the winning goal.
