Hunter: We Never Give Up On Each Other

0 0

Siobhan Hunter is proud that the Hibees "never gave up" after initially going behind to Glasgow City before battling hard to earn a draw on Sunday afternoon.

The televised match was undeniably not a spectacle, with plenty of direct football being played on the Meadowbank turf in high temperature conditions.

Kathleen McGovern and Eilidh Adams turned the game around following an early City opener, but substitute Nicole Kozlova earned her side a point with a smart second-half finish. 

Despite not taking three points from the challenging encounter, Hunter is delighted with her side's unyielding attitude, excellent team spirit and gritty defensive showing. 

"At this point in the season you take every point that you get," she told HibsTV. Nothing is won or lost in this game, everyone knew that.

"A tough opponent, really good opponent. They probably pinned us in for 45 in the second half, so we've done well to keep them out. Obviously conceded that one goal but we'll take the point and move on to Wednesday.

"You can crumble or you can come back and fight and I think we did that. We came back and fought and we never gave up. 

"We're really resilient in what we do and we never give up on each other. We have our backs and we'll keep fighting until the very end."

Shiv described the turgid affair as "not the best football to watch as a neutral" sat at home.

However, the defender was full of praise for the home support in attendance. 

"They are massive [for us]. They give us goosebumps going throughout the game. They're loud, they never stop.

"They're here, home and away and they're a real pleasure to play for.

"We need them for next two massive games and we're really thankful for them.

"The games are so big, they keep getting bigger and bigger. But we want to be in this position, we want to keep fighting and it's something that we're really proud of but we don't want to stop now."
