A 90th-minute goal from Ross Caldwell secures a 2-1 win for Hibernian over Hearts in the Scottish Premier League this afternoon.

A last-minute winner from Ross Caldwell has helped Hibernian to a 2-1 win over Hearts in the Edinburgh derby in the Scottish Premier League this afternoon.

Ben Williams punched away a Kevin McHattie corner early on, before efforts from Darren Barr and Michael Ngoo were blocked.

Alex Harris looked to break the deadlock at the other end of the pitch, but Jamie McDonald was sharp in the Hearts goal and made the save.

Barr managed to edge the home side in front just before half time, smashing the ball in from close range following another McHattie corner.

The visitors got back on level terms at the start of the second half after Harris won a free kick, allowing Leigh Griffiths to fire the ball in.

It looked like the rivals would be sharing the points until Caldwell blasted the ball in from the edge of the area in the 90th minute.

The result moves Hibernian up to ninth in the table above Hearts.
