Despite taking an early lead, Hibs were beaten 2-1 by their Edinburgh rivals

Hibernian slipped to second in the SWPL table after a narrow 2-1 defeat at home to Edinburgh rivals Hearts.

Hibs made a swift start at Meadowbank as Kathleen McGovern's clever backheel put the hosts ahead after 12 minutes.

However, Lisa Robertson smashed in the equaliser after the break.

Emma Brownlie smashed home the winning goal after McGovern struck the crossbar.

The result moves Hearts within eight points of Hibs who are joint on points with Glasgow City but behind the league leaders on goal difference.
