Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Heart of Midlothian FC gets underway.
- 5' It’s high time Malky Mackay made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 10' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 15' Ross Callachan picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 20' Regan Charles-Cook has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Liam Boyce is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Heart of Midlothian FC so far.
- 30' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 35' It looks like no one’s ball. Ross County FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 40' The home supporters are growing impatient. Heart of Midlothian FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 45' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 50' Supporters expect more eagerness from Barrie McKay, as he is very good at scoring at Tynecastle Park with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
- 55' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 59' Controversy at the stadium! Jordan Tillson argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 64' Heart of Midlothian FC is showing some good football. However, Heart of Midlothian FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 67' The referee has no hesitation. Keith Watson is booked for Ross County FC — Yellow card on 67.

- 78' Dominic Samuel has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ross Callachan on 78 minute.
- 83' It looks surprising Ross County FC does not make any changes. Craig Gordon has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 88' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ben Woodburn suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' Harry Paton is ready to make an impact after coming on for Jordan White at the 89 minute mark.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
