Kieron Bowie’s leveller earned Hibernian a Scottish Premiership point to stay in touch with Motherwell as the European hopefuls played out a thrilling draw in front of a sell-out Easter Road.
Jens Berthel Askou’s side, missing hugely influential midfielder Elliot Watt, withstood first-half pressure from the hosts and took the lead when an excellent finish from Tawanda Maswanhise had the visitors heading for a statement win.
But Hibs capitalised on slack Well defending to secure a deserved point when Jordan Obita found Scotland striker Bowie, who adjusted his body well after an awkward first touch to equalise.
Both sides passed up opportunities to win it, with Ibrahim Said somehow planting a near-post header wide for the visitors, but a draw was fair in a gripping encounter.
The result keeps Well fourth, with David Gray’s side still two points adrift in fifth.
