Rix hails hard-working Hearts

HEARTS head coach Graham Rix praised his side for grinding out three points in a dramatic game at Livingston in the Bank of Scotland Premier League.

The Jambos took the lead after a shaky start through Bruno Aguiar and despite being pegged back twice in a thrilling second period they won 3-2 courtesy of Roman Bednar’s late clincher.

Rix had envisaged a difficult afternoon with Tynecastle legend John Robertson taking charge of Livingston for the first time at home, but felt they just deserved the victory.
