EURO QUEST TIMELY TONIC FOR HIBEES

Gray calls for improvement

- By Darren Johnstone

DAVID GRAY says tomorrow’s European clash with Partizan Belgrade is the perfect game as Hibs look to pick themselves up from their weekend league disappointment.

Hibs are 2-0 up from the Conference League third qualifying round first leg when they welcome the Serbs to Leith.

Gray is hoping a packed Easter Road can help the team complete the job as they look to move a step closer to the lucrative group stages.

But the Hibs manager knows his side will need to improve on Sunday’s frustrating 2-2 draw at home to Kilmarnock, as poor defending allowed the visitors to claim a point after being 2-0 down.
