Hibs got just what they wanted for Christmas as they claimed their first win in four matches by beating Livingston.
The Hibees bounced back from last week's dramatic loss to Rangers at Ibrox as they took on David Martindale's side at Easter Road. Kevin Nisbet got his first run out in Leith since returning from injury and the Scotland star made an instant impact. The goal-machine was involved as Livingston were reduced to ten men, when Jason Holt lunged in with a dangerous challenge and was red carded. Nisbet then got himself on the score sheet, before Hibs turned on the style with a stunning finish from Chris Cadden and a a cool header from Kyle Magennis. Magennis was at it again just after the second half with an almost identical finish.
The result will provide a huge boost to Lee Johnson who was desperate to see his side claim three points. The performance and positive attacking display will have impressed the Easter Road faithful as they get set to welcome Celtic next.
