Dundee Utd Earn a Point, Hibs Stuck at the Bottom
It was a tale of two halves at Tannadice Park as Dundee United battled to a 1-1 draw with Livingston, while Hibernian remain rooted at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership after a 2-1 defeat to Motherwell.
The Tangerines were the better side in the first half, with goalscoring chances aplenty. However, they were frustrated by a stubborn Livi defense. They finally broke through after the break when Steven Fletcher found the back of the net. The veteran striker, who has been a real thorn in the side of Livi this season, gave Dundee United the lead.
But Livi, who have been a real tough nut to crack for many teams this year, fought back. **They leveled the score through a penalty from ** Bruce Anderson. It was a deserved equalizer, and ultimately a fair result for both sides.
Meanwhile, Hibernian continue to struggle. Their hopes of a quick turnaround were dashed by a disappointing performance against Motherwell. **A ** goal from Blair Spittal **put the visitors ahead, and while they managed to get one back through ** a stunning free kick from Josh Campbell, it wasn't enough to salvage anything from the game.
This draw for Dundee United keeps them in mid-table. They are still far from the top, but they're certainly not in any relegation trouble. Hibs, on the other hand, remain firmly in the relegation battle. They'll need to find some form quickly if they want to avoid the drop.
It's a tough time for Hibs fans. They've been used to challenging for trophies, but this season has been a real struggle. However, they've shown glimpses of promise, and they'll be hoping for a better performance in their next game.
In the meantime, they'll have to watch nervously as other teams around them battle for points.
The battle for survival in the Scottish Premiership is heating up. It's shaping up to be a thrilling and dramatic race to the finish line. And with the two teams at the bottom of the table facing off in the coming weeks, things are about to get even more interesting.
