Frustration for Jimenez as Hibs U19s Fall to Rangers at HTC

It proved a frustrating evening for Bermudian international Logan Jimenez and his Hibernian Under-19 teammates as they succumbed to a 2-0 defeat against Rangers at the Hibernian Training Centre. The young Hibees found clear openings hard to come by against an organised Rangers defence that controlled proceedings across large spells of the contest. James Reid broke the deadlock for the visitors with a sharp first-half finish, putting the Glasgow side on the front foot and forcing Hibs to chase the game. Despite efforts from Jimenez and the forward line to unlock the Rangers backline, the hosts struggled to carve out clear-cut opportunities in the final third. Alexander Smith made sure of the points late on, stroking home from inside the penalty area to double the advantage and seal a disciplined road victory for the visitors.
