Hibernian manager Tony Mowbray denied any fall-out with Garry O'Connor after the striker was substituted before their side went on to beat Rangers.
"Garry has got to understand that I make decisions for the benefit of the team," said Mowbray after O'Connor reacted angrily to his withdrawal.
"It benefitted Garry here as he gets his win bonus after a great 3-0 result.
"Garry is quick, but Ivan Sproule is exceptionally quick and it paid off for us with his three late goals."
