93rd Minute Stunner Gives Hibs Draw In Crazy Game Against 9-Man Rangers

93rd Minute Stunner Gives Hibs Draw In Crazy Game Against 9-Man Rangers

A 93rd minute screamer gave Hibs an epic 2-2 draw with Rangers, to complete an action packed second-half at Easter Road.

Rangers had taken the lead just on the stroke of half-time when Rocky Bushiri gave away a needless penalty for James Tavernier to slot home.

Martin Boyle equalised for Hibs, before Tom Lawrence made it 2-1 to the away side. This is when the game began to turn on its head as Rangers were issued with two controversial red cards within nine minutes of each other.

The first was given to John Lundstram for a cynical trip on Martin Boyle, although it was the type of challenge that would have seen a yellow card in most cases.

In the 75th minute, substitute and perennial red card receiver Alfredo Morelos, was shown a straight red card for an off the ball incident with Marijan Cabraja.

The referee adjudged Morelos to have caught the Hibs player with his elbow, and was quick in showing the striker his seventh red of his Rangers career.

Hibs naturally went on the offensive for the rest of the match, and were eventually rewarded in epic fashion when Josh Campbell struck in the 93rd minute with a superbly nonchalant half-volley from 25 yards.

Despite the loss, Rangers remain top of the Scottish Premier League, a point above Celtic on nine, but having played one game more. Celtic face Hearts tomorrow at 15:00, in Celtic Park.
