Made a first-half save from Vakoun Bayo but otherwise didnt look particularly convincing.
Forced off by injury midway through the first half with the match still goalless.
A few difficult moments defensively but also showed good composure in dealing with some testing situations.
Made a few crucial interceptions in the first half and booked for foul on Scott Brown. Unable to prevent Bayo converting the third.
Generally held defence together well in first half but unable to stop Bayo bundling in the opener. Made a couple of key tackles late in the game.
Considering the heat and demands of the fixture, the 35-year-old did well to last 90 mins in his first match in almost four months. Helped Hearts keep their shape in first half.
