Andy Halliday has revealed the fury in the Hearts dressing room after conceding a last-gasp equaliser to Hibs.
The Jambos were on course for a third derby win on the spin against their city rivals after Lawrence Shankland’s first league goal in maroon had put them ahead at Easter Road. His strike looked like being enough to claim all three points as the final seconds of the game ticked down.
But Martin Boyle marked his return to Leith with a dramatic late intervention. The forward came off the bench after penning a three-year deal with the Hibees on his return from Al Faisaly and was only registered to play shortly before the game. He got on the end of Elie Youan’s cutback to stab past Craig Gordon and send three quarters of the stadium wild.Fans spilled onto the pitch with joy as the Jambos only had time to kick-off again before John Beaton below the full-time whistle.
