Skacel fires Hearts to late triumph

19 March 2011 19:30
Rudi Skacel struck a dramatic late winner as Hearts completed a stunning fightback against St Mirren to triumph 3-2 after twice going behind to a Michael Higdon double. The Czech slammed home a Craig Thomson corner in injury time just minutes after Ryan Stevenson had equalised. Higdon gave the visitors a deserved half-time lead with a 15th-minute header to make up for an earlier miss but Skacel's dipping effort brought Hearts level in the 55th minute. Stevenson then cancelled out Higdon's second before Skacel pounced in the box to seal Hearts' first win in four games.
