Hearts delivered a masterclass in finishing in their 3-0 win against Hibernian at Easter Road to claim their spot in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup.
Robbie Neilson's side were content to sit in and soak up pressure from their hosts in huge spells in the game, but showed they have what it takes to pounce when it matters, scoring three times with their only real opportunities of the game. With 10 minutes on the clock, Josh Ginnelly grabbed his fourth goal in his last nine matches with a powerful finish from inside the area after Hibs struggled to deal with an in swinging free kick from Robert Snodgrass.
Hibs huffed and puffed for a leveller, but the visitors were rarely seriously threatened defensively, and in the second half showed their ruthless ability in front of goal once again when Lawrence Shankland played a smart one-two with Stephen Humphrys, before expertly volleying in a half-volley to make it 2-0.
