A breathless 95 minutes comes to an end in Paisley.

It looked, for most of the second half, that St Mirren's late first-half goal flurry was going to be enough to snatch all three points.

That was until Jardell Kanga, on his debut, scored a wondergoal to take a point back to Fir Park. The 20-year-old only joined the club two days ago from Ilves in the Finnish top flight - talk about first impressions.

Three deserved points for Hibs, but they were made to work for it at the end.

Martin Boyle and Callum Wright scored with nice finishes either side of half-time and Hibs were dominant for large periods.

Joe Westley's scrambled goal for Dundee set up a late rally for the hosts, but the three points head to Easter Road.

Referee John Beaton blew for full-time after the ball had gone out for a corner, much to the Dundee supporters' chagrin.

And Beaton subsequently brandished a yellow card at Dundee's Ryan Astley for dissent.

Alex Lowry lashes his bouncing effort wide as Motherwell try to salvage something from the game.

Goalkeeper Jacob Chapman is then forced into an acrobatic save to keep St Mirren's lead intact.

Up the other end, counterpart Alex Paulsen denies St Mirren's Jake Young on the break.

We're into two minutes of stoppage time at Dens Park.

Will Hibs hold on?

Another Ethan Hamilton effort certainly has some welly on it, but a Hibs body gets in the way.

This one ain't over yet.

Substitute Fraser Taylor blocks a Motherwell pass as they try to play it long.

He spots Alex Paulsen off his line and launches a strike from range, but the shot is too high.

Nervous moment for the goalkeeper though.

A good day's work for Callum Wright as he is replaced with Joe Newell for Hibs.

Wright's goal is well worth a viewing on Sportscene later.

Miguel Chaiwa is also on for the visitors in place of Jacob Devaney.

Felix Passlack scored a great goal the other night and he almost gets another one.

A burst of energy in the final third takes the right-back into a shooting position and his powerful effort is just over.

Hibs claim a corner for a touch by the goalkeeper, but goal kick is the decision.

Thibaut Klidje, remember him?

The big-money striker signing has come on for Hibs' Nathan Lowe as Martin Boyle also makes way for Ante Suto.

St Mirren goalkeeper Champan is celebrating Henry Fieldson's block like a goal and rightly so. The defender makes a vital challenge to deny Seb Palmer-Houlden from close range.

The Buddies goalkeeper is then forced to tip Eythor Bjorgolfsson's header over the bar before the Norwegian's second goes wide.

Bobby Wales and Zan Besir replace Joe Bevan and Ryan Finnigan for Dundee.

Can they make the difference for Steven Pressley's side?

A bit more like it for Dundee as first Alan Forrest and Joe Bevan make yards in the wide areas, but Hibs stand up to the threat.

Motherwell are having to defend here as St Mirren pop shots towards Alex Paulsen's goal.

Eventually they win a free-kick to calm things down.

Emmanuel Longelo goes down under Ryan Carr's challenge about 25 yards from the St Mirren goal.

The left-back stands over the free-kick, which he bends towards the back post, where Martin Moormann is charging in.

However, the defender can't get a decent connection and the ball goes behind for a goal-kick.

Now it's St Mirren's turn to create.

The cross comes to Eseosa Sule on the right, he hangs back and waits for a few teammates to join him, but Motherwell defend well.

Hibs rampant now.

Jamie McGrath has the left-hand side of the box to himself as the ball ricochets into his path and his downward volley is well saved by goalkeeper Owen Goodman.

Alan Forrest and Finn Roberston are on for Bradley Felix and Charlie Reilly for Dundee and winger Forrest threatens with a shot over from the left of the box.
