Alan Stubbs says he 'never imagined' Mark Oxley would score against Livingston

Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs reacts to Mark Oxley's goal as the on-loan goalkeeper scores the winner against Livingston on his league debut for the club.

Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs saw his side get off to a winning start in the Scottish Championship, but never imagined that goalkeeper Mark Oxley would score the decisive goal.

Oxley, 23, is on loan from Hull City for the season and today's 2-1 win over Livingston was his league debut.

His goal on 19 minutes came when he launched a goal kick upfield that flew all the way into the back of the Livingston next.

"I've got to be really honest, I didn't think Mark would be scoring our winner today," Stubbs told the club's official website.

"Normally it happens when it's blowing a gale, but today we found ourselves in one of those strange situations where it's unfortunate for their goalkeeper."

Hibernian's win puts them third in the Scottish Championship table ahead of next weekend's Edinburgh derby against Hearts.
