Hibernian upset Scottish Premiership champions Celtic at Easter Road to set up a final-day Edinburgh derby decider to determine who will finish four in the division.
Lee Johnson’s side twice came from behind against the 10 men of Celtic, then went ahead after Scott Bain let Elie Youan’s speculative effort slip through his hands.
Reo Hatate’s penalty had Celtic in front before Youan volleyed in a leveller after the break. Oh Hyeun-gyu put Ange Postecoglou’s side back ahead, but Daizen Maeda’s red card sparked the contest into a dramatic conclusion.
Kevin Nisbet equalised from the spot before Bain’s fumble put Hibs ahead for the first time and the deputising goalkeeper was at fault again as Paul Hanlon nodded in a fourth.
It means Hibs can clinch fourth, and a guaranteed Europa Conference League place, if they can win at Tynecastle on Saturday.
