Dundee Utd hold Hibernian as Boyle cancels early strike | OneFootball

Match in Five Sentences: Dundee Utd and Hibernian drew 1-1 at Tannadice. Luca Stephenson put The Arabs ahead in the 20th minute with a low finish after Max Watters' pass. Martin Boyle levelled for Hibs (38.) from the left side after a corner worked by Zach Mitchell, and the visitors then controlled long spells. Hibees produced 23 attempts and had 58.7% possession, pinning the hosts back for much of the second half. Hibees stay fifth and host Hearts next, while United remain eighth and visit Aberdeen.

Player of the Match: Grant Hanley marshalled everything in front of him, making 14 clearances and winning nine aerial duels to keep Hibs solid under sporadic pressure.

Stat of the Match: Hibees registered 23 attempts, a tally that reflected their sustained pressure after the equaliser.

Three Things We Learned: An enforced change disrupted United's right flank, with Ryan Strain departing (5.) and Dario Naamo replacing him. Hibs' wide supply was constant, as Nicky Cadden delivered seven accurate crosses and five key passes. The Arabs made 34 clearances, underlining how much defending they had to do against that pressure.
