Fenlon joy as Hibs advance

Pat Fenlon lauded a stoic Hibernian display as his new-look team claimed a place in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals with a 1-0 win over Kilmarnock.

Eoin Doyle’s strike proved enough to secure a first win at Easter Road for Hibernian since September and send the Edinburgh side into the last eight of a competition they have not won in 109 years.

But it was the defensive resilience which proved most pleasing for manager Fenlon, as the often-maligned Hibs back line remained firm.
