FT. Spartak Trnava 5-1, (7-2) aggregate. This was a different Spartak to the first leg in Malta. Too much quality for Hibs to handle. A tough match and a tough result for the Maltese side. Spartak simply had too much for Hibs tonight. Now Hibs have to regroup and learn what they can from this match ahead of the new premier league season next month.
