Hibs draw against Motherwell

After ninety minutes a goal scored in stoppage time meant the home fixture ended in a draw for Hibernian.

Elie Youan scored from a Georgie Gent cross and Hibs retain their sixth place as the winter break begins.

After the match manager Nick Montgomery said: “I thought we showed big character. We’ve got three 16/17 year-olds on the pitch and Harry McKirdy who has come back from a life-threatening situation [heart surgery].

“I thought first 30 minutes we were superb and could have gone in a couple of goals to the good at half-time. The stats tell you – 70% possession, 500 passes to 250. But ultimately it’s moments in the game.

“I’ve said to the lads at the end, we can play as well as that but we’ve conceded from a throw-in, a poor goal to concede from. And it’s a free kick where possibly the boy’s offside as it’s played back in.”
