Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Easter Road Stadium!
- 5' A quiet spell here at Easter Road Stadium. Kilmarnock FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 10' It’s a booking for Kilmarnock FC player. Ashton Taylor gets a Red card.
- 12' Joe Newell puts Hibernian FC on the lead.
- 17' Hibernian FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 18' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Alan Power.
- 23' Innes Cameron has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 28' David Marshall needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 33' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Hibernian FC and Kilmarnock FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 38' Sam Walker has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 379 appearances.
- 43' Lewis Mayo is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Hibernian FC so far.
- 48' It looks surprising Hibernian FC does not make any changes. Alan Power has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 51' The crowd applauds Ewan Henderson as he leaves the pitch. Harry McKirdy steps in for Hibernian FC.
- 56' Hibernian FC is showing some good football. However, Hibernian FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 61' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Hibernian FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 66' Lewis Stevenson has so much to prove this time. He replaces Josh Campbell on 66 minute.
- 67' A tactical swap from Kilmarnock FC — Fraser Murray on, Oliver Shaw off on 67 minutes.
- 72' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Kilmarnock FC that had 260 games and scored 271 goals.
- 77' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 82' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 87' 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 Nohan Kenneh suffering a number of foals already.
- Another three points for Hibernian FC.
