DUNDEE UNITED
DENIZ MEHMET 6
Nothing he could do with either of Hibs’ goals. Made a couple of good saves otherwise including from a Nisbet free kick in the second half.
RYAN EDWARDS 5
Struggled to cope with the attacking threat of Doidge and Nisbet. Was booked for scything down Boyle on the edge of the box.
LIAM SMITH 6
Made a key interception on Martin Boyle who could have made it 3-0. Defended well but was never really an influence going forward.
MARK REYNOLDS 5
Another who was caused problems by the pace of Hibs on the attack. An uncharacteristic display from the former Aberdeen man.
JAMIE ROBSON 6
Had a quiet first 45 minutes but made a better impression in the second period. Big chance in the penalty area to grab a goal back in the second half.
JEANDO FUCHS 6
Battled well in the middle of the park, but his use of the ball was suspect at times.
IAN HARKES 6
Had a couple of big chances in the first half when it was goalless in Glasgow. Will be kicking himself that he didn’t do any better.
CALUM BUTCHER 6
Booked early in the match and it probably affected his overall display. Had to hold himself back and wasn’t his usual combative self.
MARC MCNULTY 6
A couple of speculative attempts from distance were the highlights of his afternoon. Hanlon and Porteous kept him quiet.
NICKY CLARK 6
Substituted early in the second half at the national stadium. Struggled to impact the game despite seeing plenty of the ball.
LAWRENCE SHANKLAND 5
Famed for his sharp shooting in front of goal but he seemed to lack confidence in the final third. Had a number of chances, but no goals in a poor display.
SUBS
ADRIAN SPORLE (FOR CLARK, 53) 4
Was brought on as United changed their shape. Got forward well.
PETER PAWLETT (FOR HARKES, 60) 3
Never made the impact that Micky Mellon would have hoped.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
