Hibs fans launch pitch invasion as derby exuberance spills onto pitch after Martin Boyle heroics

Martin Boyle Hibs Lee Johnson Hibee Lawrence Shankland Hearts

Hibs fans stormed the pitch at Easter Road as their side salvaged a late 1-1 draw with rivals Hearts in this season's first Edinburgh derby.

It looked for all the world that Robbie Neilson's side were going to come away from this one with a victory thanks to a goal from Lawrence Shankland in the first half. Martin Boyle returned to Hibs on Saturday eight months after leaving for Saudi Arabia and Al-Faislay with his return to Leith turning into a triumphant one.

He stabbed home a late effort at the back post to make sure Lee Johnson's men took home a point for their efforts after last weekend's 1-0 win away at St Johnstone was one in stoppage time. That goal was too much to handle for some Hibs fans, with a small section of them invading the park and celebrating. Pyrotechnics were also launched from the home support.
