Cummings sinks Cowden
Jason Cummings scored his sixth goal of the season as Hibernian held on to beat strugglers Cowdenbeath 2-1 at Central Park.
Hibs took the game to their hosts in the early stages and were rewarded for their efforts in the 25th minute when Paul Hanlon got on the end of Scott Allan's cross to fire in from close range.
Cowden came close to pulling themselves level five minutes later when Kudus Oyenuga tried his luck from range but his effort sailed wide.
The visitors doubled their lead four minutes before the break when Cummings smashed in from the middle of the box.
Hibernian goalkeeper Kleton Perntreou, who came on for Mark Oxley at the break, produced a fantastic save to deny Lewis Milne in the 62nd minute, but the home side finally made the breakthrough a minute later when Milne's deep cross found Jon Robertson, who nodded in at the back post.
