Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Hibernian FC launch into their encounter with Kilmarnock FC.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Hibernian FC that had 303 games and scored 395 goals.
  • 8' Another substitution for Hibernian FC to replace Kanayo Megwa by Grant Hanley on 8 minute.
  • 13' Kilmarnock FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 13.
  • 18' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 18 minutes.
  • 23' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 28' 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.
  • 31' Poor challenge from Tyreece John-Jules. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 36' Kanayo Megwa has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 6 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 40' George Stanger does the damage! The net is bulging and Kilmarnock FC surge ahead!
  • 45' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 50' Kilmarnock FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 53' The Hibernian FC bench stirs into life. Thibault Klidje is withdrawn and Nathan Lowe gets his opportunity.
  • 58' Hibernian FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 63' Hibernian FC currently sit 8 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 67' Jacob Devaney makes way for Miguel Chaiwa at the 67 minute mark. A tactical switch from Hibernian FC.
  • 72' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Hibernian FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 73' The whistle greets Tyreece John-Jules as he departs to be replaced by Djenairo Daniels.
  • 78' Kilmarnock FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 78.
  • 83' It is a cagey affair so far. Hibernian FC in their 3-1-4-2 trying to find a way past Kilmarnock FC's compact 4-2-3-1.
  • 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 Bailey Rice suffering a number of foals already.
  • 90' Another change for Kilmarnock FC made on 90 minute. Erik Ring leaves to be changed by Rory McKenzie.
  • 90' Djenairo Daniels picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • Kilmarnock FC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
