Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Easter Road Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' 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.
  • 10' Livingston FC is showing some good football. However, Livingston FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 15' Jack Fitzwater has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 66 appearances.
  • 20' Livingston FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 25' 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 Josh Doig suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Hibernian FC and Livingston FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jake Doyle-Hayes, as he is very good at scoring at Easter Road Stadium with 2 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 40' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Hibernian FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 45' Scott Allan gets the nod from Hibernian FC. He replaces Jamie Murphy and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 49' Sean Kelly is ready to make an impact after coming on for Jack Fitzwater at the 49 minute mark.
  • 51' A stunning finish from Kevin Nisbet — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 56' A quiet spell here at Easter Road Stadium. Hibernian FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 59' The whistle greets Craig Sibbald as he departs to be replaced by Keaghan Jacobs.
  • 60' Livingston FC make a change. Craig Sibbald trudges off to be replaced by Keaghan Jacobs on 60 minutes.
  • 65' The home supporters are growing impatient. Hibernian FC must find a spark to ignite this game.

  • 74' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Andrew Shinnie.
  • 75' The referee shows Livingston FC player a Yellow card on 75.
  • 80' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Bruce Anderson made 362 appearances and scored 38 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 85' Craig Sibbald has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 21 cards already picked up this season.
  • 89' Martin Boyle doubles the advantage! 2-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
