Paul McGinn’s 83rd minute strike earned Hibs a share of the points against Aberdeen but he also gave his own profile a boost ahead of the appointment of a new manager.
David Bates fired the Dons in front from close range ten minutes into the second half but McGinn replied late on as the hosts snatched a deserved point, and came close to nicking the win late on.
David Bates opened the scoring on 55 minutes with Paul McGinn levelling on 83 minutes but visiting goalkeeper Joe Lewis thwarted Joe Newell and Elias Melkersen to ensure a share of the spoils.
He had only just turned 19 when he made the hop from the Arctic Circle to the Capital but arrived full of confidence and ready to make his mark in a new country.
Elias Melkersen has told Hibernian supporters they will see the best of him next season after claiming he has not done well enough since his January arrival.
For all the talk of finishing as strongly as they possibly can, and targeting seventh, it all feels very flat. With the Easter Road side mathematically safe from the dreaded relegation play-off place the next three games are about as dead-rubbery as they come – for Hibs at least.
Ewan Henderson’s second-half goal handed Hibernian a win at St Mirren in their first match since sacking manager Shaun Maloney.
As things stand the club’s top scorer in all competitions, 14-goal Martin Boyle, is plying his trade more than 4,000 miles away in Saudi Arabia. Their second-top goalscorer – Kevin Nisbet, nine – is injured and sidelined until late 2022. The player in third – Kyle Magennis, with four – is also injured and won’t be back for the remainder of the season.
