'And the Hibs won' Stuart Hogg's double delight uncovered as Scotland star revels in Aberdeen win

Scotland rugby star Stuart Hogg is a regular at Easter Road when fans are allowed in - and he showed his love for the club immediately after a famous victory.

Hogg was key to Scotland's win over England in Saturday's Calcutta Cup clash but even in his celebrations, his thoughts were on his football team.

Hibs were taking on Aberdeen in a huge game in the Premiership and although Hogg was fully focused on the game in hand at Twickenham, his first thought post-match seems to have been the ongoings at Easter Road.

While celebrating with his team-mates and coaches, he found out quickly what the score was and that became part of the enjoyment of the day.

He can be seen hugging a member of staff before shouting: "And the Hibs won too."

Jack Ross' men won 2-0 at Easter Road against Aberdeen thanks to a Martin Boyle double.

The Australian international scored a penalty before netting again in the second half to put his side five points clear of Aberdeen in third place.

Hogg's Scotland team beat England 11-6 to win at Twickenham for the first time in 28 years.
