Will Fish Impresses Despite Hibernian’s Defeat to Rangers. On a challenging night at Easter Road against Rangers, loanee Will Fish stood out for his Hibernian side. Although Rangers emerged as comfortable 3-0 winners, Fish’s performance was noteworthy amidst his team’s struggles.

Despite the loss, the 20-year-old defender showcased his talent, attracting attention from several clubs ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window. Fish will continue to play for Hibernian until the end of the current campaign.

Sofascore rated Fish with a score of 7.1, making him one of his team’s top performers. Despite conceding three goals, Fish displayed solidity at the back, making seven clearances and blocking two shots while also recording one interception.

Notably, Fish won all of his aerial and ground duels, displaying his prowess in defensive battles. He also demonstrated his abilities on the ball, completing 90% of his 49 passes and successfully finding a teammate on ten occasions out of 13 long pass attempts.

Facing Rangers, a team that has competed at the European level, provided valuable game time for the Manchester-born defender’s development. It is worth mentioning that Rangers reached the final of the Europa League in 2022, underlining the significance of facing such high-level opposition.

Despite Hibernian’s recent struggles, accumulating only four points in their last five games and remaining in sixth place, Fish continues to be a key contributor. He made his 21st appearance of the season across all competitions, highlighting his importance to the team.

Hibernian’s next challenge will be a difficult away match against fourth-placed Kilmarnock on Saturday afternoon.
