Motherwell boss: We got some big calls against us today against Hibs

Motherwell boss Stevie Hammell says his side were robbed of big decisions as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Hibs at Easter Road, and felt they deserved to take something from the game.

The game hinged on a huge decision for referee Grant Irvine to send off Connor Shields for a foul on Ryan Porteous in 56 minutes, 11 minutes before the Hibs defender headed in the winner.

But Hammell says his side were denied a penalty for a foul on Shields at the start of the second half, and midfielder Blair Spittal was taken to hospital following a hefty collision in the first half, that the gaffer hinted could have left him with rib damage.
