Hibernian show guts and heart, plus a sprinkling of stardust, to cast aside Luzern and set up Aston Villa meeting.
Hibs have struggled defensively this season, and are yet to keep a clean sheet. But despite letting in another two, they were still heroic in keeping the lively Luzern attack at bay."They came with a game plan to soak up pressure and hit Luzern on the counter attack," said Sportsound pundit Rory Loy.
"The two goals they conceded were avoidable. But for large portions of the game they defended their box and looked a threat going the other way.Johnson has to take credit alongside the players for two well-executed game plans, and he also has Youan and Boyle to thank for their pace and skill when it counted.
Youan drove forward and hit a fantastic shot for the opening goal, and his pace and dribbling skill took him away from Marco Burch for the decisive second from Boyle. "Youan is a bit Jekyll and Hyde," Loy added. "He has the potential to be one of the best players in the league. If he can tidy up his sloppyness and decision making he will be a top player."When they are on form Hibs are a dangerous side and difficult to stop."
