Ghana's Joseph Wollacott delivered an impressive performance for Hibernian on Wednesday, contributing to a resounding 3-0 victory over Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership.

The Black Stars' goalkeeper was in the starting lineup for his team's Week 37 match in Scotland's premier football league.

Guarding the goal for Hibernian, Wollacott executed several crucial saves and achieved a clean sheet by the final whistle.

By halftime, Hibernian had established a 2-0 lead, courtesy of strikes from Myziane Maolida and Martin Boyle.

Following the break, Martin Boyle found the net once more, completing his double and cementing a significant triumph for Hibernian over Motherwell.

Wollacott's standout display in today's match is particularly timely, as it comes just before the June international break.

His active participation is vital as he vies for inclusion in Ghana's national team for the forthcoming matches against Mali and Central African Republic, which are part of the qualifying rounds for the FIFA World Cup 2026.
