- 5' Scotland international Jack MacKenzie has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 10' Jordan Obita has been relatively quiet despite scoring 11 goals in his last 379 appearances.
- 13' Hibernian FC player sees a card in front of him.
- 18' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 23' Over 23 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 28' Supporters expect more eagerness from Joe Newell, as he is very good at scoring at Easter Road Stadium with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
- 30' Leighton Clarkson puts Aberdeen FC on the lead.
- 35' 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 Martin Boyle suffering a number of foals already.
- 39' Goal! Dante Polvara scores his 2 goal in 351 matches.
- 44' Aberdeen FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 49' A quiet spell here at Easter Road Stadium. Hibernian FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 52' Bojan Miovski doubles the advantage! 0-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 57' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Connor Barron made 351 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 62' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 67' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Hibernian FC and Aberdeen FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 72' It looks surprising Aberdeen FC does not make any changes. Rocky Bushiri has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 74' That is a card for Hibernian FC. Adam Le Fondre will be fuming at that decision.
- 77' The Aberdeen FC manager makes a substitution. Junior Hoilett departs to be replaced by Duk.
- 82' Aberdeen FC is showing some good football. However, Aberdeen FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 83' That is a card for Aberdeen FC. Graeme Shinnie will be fuming at that decision.
- 88' It is a cagey affair so far. Hibernian FC in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Aberdeen FC's compact 4-1-4-1.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Aberdeen FC players.
