Rangers revert to type as Hamza Igamane watches gutsy Hibs wipe out tremendous Treble – 3 talking points

Rangers were brought crashing back down to earth after their Old Firm derby high as they were held to a 3-3 draw by Hibs in an enthralling Easter Road encounter.

Hamza Igamane fired a hat-trick - and should have had a fourth to win it at the death - but it wasn’t enough to get the win. Martin Boyle scored a couple for Hibs and Rocky Bushiri grabbed a point with a dramatic late header. Rangers were on a high after their derby victory at Ibrox and got off to a flyer here as they broke the deadlock with less than five minutes on the clock against the hosts who looked shaky despite being in fine form themselves going into this one.

Rocky Bushiri was hesitant in defending a long upfield ball and Igamane caused him problems. The ball was worked out wide left to Nedim Bajrami who fed Ianis Hagi and the Old Firm hero’s ball into the middle was brilliantly struck home by Igamane. Bajrami then had a shot deflected wide with the home side - without captain Joe Newell - looking rattled before the Albanian then forced Jordan Smith into a fine save when one one one.

But it was Bajrami who was the creator for the second as he stood up a brilliant cross for Igamane to bullet home a header for his second.

Hibs looked down and out at that stage but just after the half hour mark they hauled themselves back into it when Bushiri did well to keep alive a free kick into the box and when it fell to Boyle he did brilliantly to lash the ball beyond Liam Kelly.

The momentum shifted until Rangers regrouped at the break and they regained their composure and Igamane was denied his hat-trick by a fine save from Smith but it was Hibs who drew level on the hour when Boyle grabbed his second from the spot after Hagi’s clumsy challenge on Josh Campbell
