Jack Ross was left fuming at the end of Hibs’ draw with Dundee United on Saturday – as his side deserved to win the match that ended 1-1.
Arabs keeper Benjamin Siegrist turned in a brilliant performance to keep the game close, Hibs only 1-0 up heading towards the 90th minute due to his great saves. They landed a sucker punch too.
Luke Bolton levelled for United in stoppage time as they nicked a point from Hibs in a game the home side felt they should have won. Ross was left unhappy at full-time.
“We should win the game with the amount of chances we’ve created throughout the match,” said Ross. “It’s probably the angriest I have been with the players this season with making sure they get what they deserve from football matches because they deserved to win that.
“At half-time I don’t think I can be critical of the finishing because I think Siegrist’s saves were outstanding, really, really top saves. In the second half it flips a bit, I don’t think he makes brilliant saves – I think we miss opportunities.
“It’s not like us because generally we are ruthless and I can’t criticise the way we played for the vast majority of that game. But those missed opportunities came back to haunt us.
“It’s a reminder to us in terms of what you have to do to make sure you’re a top team. We’ve got such high standards but to push towards where we want to get to we’ve got to be ruthless all the time.
“I don’t think we were under waves of attack and I still felt we would win the game. It only needs one major moment. The way the game finished is sore for us but we’ll dust ourselves down and go again on Wednesday.”
