Kevin Diks slammed home from the spot with 12 minutes remaining to end any hopes of the Jambos nicking a point.
Furious Neil Critchley slammed ref Andrea Colombo over the penalty award he says cost Hearts a chance to throw everything at a late leveller in Copenhagen.
“You plan to have a go but then their technical quality can sometimes limit how you can get after the ball and press and when you do that they play through you or play beyond you, it's very difficult. “It's never a penalty, I think it's a bad decision, a really bad decision. How that's gone to the VAR and given a penalty I don't really know, honestly.”
