10. Christian Doidge - 8
Scored one and might have had another had Madden played advantage when Boyle was fouled on the edge of the area. Worked so hard all game. Photo: Ross Parker - SNS Group
11. Kevin Nisbet - 8
Hugely impressive. Got the crucial opener, could have added more, and ran United's defence ragged all game. Photo: Ross MacDonald - SNS Group
12. Kyle Magennis - 7
On for the injured Newell and helped Hibs keep battling in the middle Photo: Mark Scates - SNS Group
