Hearts boss John McGlynn believes that his side should have won the Edinburgh derby following their goalless draw with Hibernian.

Hearts manager John McGlynn has claimed that his side deserved to win Thursday night's Edinburgh derby following their goalless draw with Hibernian.

The hosts had the better chances at Tynecastle and they could have snatched the victory in stoppage time when John Sutton's header came back off the crossbar.

However, they ultimately had to settle for a point against their local rivals.

"We had the possession and opportunities," said McGlynn. "Hibs had their opportunities as well but for every one of theirs, we probably had two.

"I thought we played good football, tried to pass the ball, get it into good areas and were a bit unlucky because I think we deserved to win the game."

The draw has left Hearts in ninth place in the Scottish Premier League table.
