Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Hibernian FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 15' 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 Gary Dicker suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 25' Stuart Findlay is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Kilmarnock FC tonight.

  • 63' It’s a booking for Kilmarnock FC player. Gary Dicker gets a Yellow card.

  • 90' Poor challenge from Daryl Horgan. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
