Hibernian 1-1 Aberdeen result, stats and report

Kevin Nisbet gave Hibernian the lead at Easter Road but Martin Boyle's second-half penalty earned Aberdeen a point, ending a match that both sides will feel they could have won.

Hibernian created the chances but could not take them. Kilmarnock took theirs. That is football, and that is why Hibs lost.

Aberdeen made a mockery of their recent poor form to dismantle Motherwell 4-0 at Fir Park, with goals from Gavin Molloy, Connor Ronan, Ayoub Mouloua and Kevin Nisbet completing a ruthless away performance. Motherwell had 69% possession and scored nothing. That tells you everything.

Hibernian had the ball, the chances, and the crowd, but Gent had the goals that mattered. A 90th-minute own goal from Miguel Chaiwa sealed a 3-2 win for the Belgians and ended Hibernian's European night in the worst way possible.
