Hibs boss John Collins was pleased with the way his young side played in the 1-0 defeat at Celtic.
Collins started the game with teenagers Kevin McCann, Lewis Stevenson, Steven Fletcher and Sean Lynch in his line-up and thought they all acquitted themselves well.
"I thought it was a good performance with a very young team on the park and I think for long periods in the game we held our own," Collins said.
"I thought the young boys did terrifically well. Kevin McCann at right-back did terrific as well as young Lewis Stevenson.
"Sean Lynch also did well and don't forget Steven Fletcher who is also still a young boy at only 19 years old."
