Three things we learned as Hibs extend good form against Ross County thanks to Porteous and Boyle

Ryan Porteous returned from his Scotland heroics to help Hibs onto a 2-0 Premiership victory in the Highlands against Ross County.

The Easter Road stopper helped his side into fourth in the table. Lee Johnson’s men wrapped up the three points in the second half with Martin Boyle also netting. But it was Porteous who broke the deadlock just after half time. The towering defender turned striker as he met a Joe Newell long throw in and calmly slotted home. Boyle then wrapped up the win with a brilliant finish after being picked out by Chris Cadden.

It tops off a stunning week for Porteous who earned rave reviews for his Scotland debut helping the national side to a famous draw against Ukraine. A composed performance in Poland was rounded off by another dominant display and goal as Hibs sealed another win on the back of their impressive 3-1 victory over Aberdeen. Here are three things we learned as Hibs leapfrogged Edinburgh rivals Hearts into fourth.
