Robbie Neilson insists Hearts’ 5-0 demolition of Aberdeen means NOTHING in comparison to a Scottish Cup Edinburgh derby this weekend.The Jambos blew away the team that many felt would be their main rivals for third with a ruthless display under the lights in Gorgie.
Two Josh Ginnelly goals sandwiched strikes from Michael Smith and Lawrence Shankland in the first half before Cammy Devlin’s first home goal in maroon made it five.There were further chances for more goals, and the Dons saw a late consolation ruled out after a VAR check.
The points moved Hearts nine clear of Aberdeen in third, with Livingston seven points off the pace in fourth. But Neilson isn't even thinking about back-to-back third place finishes with Hibs on the horizon.
Lee Johnson’s team were on the end of a comprehensive defeat in Gorgie just two-and-a-half weeks ago. But Neilson knows heading to Leith won't be so straight forward.“At Tynecastle when you’re under the lights and you're on that front foot, you can feel it and you;ve got to keep pushing it,” he said. “Every sub we brought on was to give us more and give us more and try to get the next goal.“Look, we’re delighted with the result but ultimately, it means nothing.
