Events

Match Events

  • 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Kilmarnock FC is hosting Hibernian FC for another epic battle.
  • 5' A quiet spell here at Rugby Park. Hibernian FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 10' The 36-year-old Marley Watkins has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Corrie Ndaba made 368 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 17' Joe Wright was booked on 17.
  • 22' 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.
  • 25' Dylan Vente does the damage! The net is bulging and Hibernian FC surge ahead!
  • 30' The travelling Hibernian FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 35' David Marshall needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Hibernian FC that had 309 games and scored 405 goals.
  • 45' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 50' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 54' GOAL! Matty Kennedy scores on 54. Assisted by Danny Armstrong
  • 57' Hibernian FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Rory Whittaker is hanging Elie Youan on the field on 57 minute.
  • 62' 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 Will Fish suffering a number of foals already.
  • 66' Joe Newell has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 66 minutes.
  • 71' It looks like no one’s ball. Hibernian FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 73' A moment of madness from Corrie Ndaba on 73 minutes earns him a card. Kilmarnock FC will be frustrated.
  • 74' A tactical swap from Kilmarnock FC — Robbie Deas on, Danny Armstrong off on 74 minutes.
  • 79' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 81' Myziane Maolida doubles the advantage! 1-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 82' Luke Amos gets the nod from Hibernian FC. He replaces Dylan Levitt and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 86' The supporters are chanting for Liam Donnelly. He replaces Rory McKenzie on 86 minute.
  • 90' The referee shows Kilmarnock FC player a card on 90.
  • 90' The supporters are chanting for Fraser Murray. He replaces Matty Kennedy on 90 minute.
  • will have plenty to reflect on. were simply the better side today.
