Robbie Neilson says Hearts 'didn't dominate' in derby win over Hibernian

Neilson: 'We didn't dominate derby'

Hearts left it late to secure a precious 2-1 derby win over Hibernian this afternoon as Sam Nicholson's strike set up victory for Robbie Neilson's side.

Hibernian missed a first half penalty, before Nicholson struck from range for Hearts and Prince Bauben doubled the lead from the penalty spot.

"I don't think we dominated totally, I thought it was a typical derby," Neilson told Sky Sports.

"There was some football played, which was nice to see, but it's just great to get the win. Sam has got unbelievable ability, we know if we can get him into those areas he can produce that kind of stuff."

Hearts' next fixture is away to Livingston in the Challenge Cup on Wednesday.
