Orestis Kiomourtzoglou had to wait to make his Hearts debut until after he was granted a visa, but insists it was a blessing in disguise.
The midfielder penned a three-year deal last month and was presented to fans before the 3-2 Premiership win over St Johnstone.
However, he didn’t pull on the maroon strip for the first time until 18 September, starting in the Jambos’ 3-0 win over Motherwell at Fir Park.
Goals from Lawrence Shankland and Alan Forrest made it a perfect start for “Kio” as the Tynecastle side returned to winning ways.
