Lee Johnson has provided an injury update on Martin Boyle and admitted: "I'm lighting a candle for him" with the World Cup on the horizon.
The Hibs fans' favourite and star man was forced off during the victory over St Mirren at Easter Road with Qatar 2022 just weeks away and the attacker a cert to be including in Graham Arnold's Australia squad for the global showpiece.
The 29-year-old was replaced early in the second period by Elias Melkersen as the Hibees ran out 3-0 winners in the capital to reclaim third spot in the Premiership. But that positive has been overshadowed by the injury to Boyle, with his manager admitting it is too early to say how bad the knock is, but expressed his delighted that it wasn't his knee and more towards the top of his shin.
