Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Kilmarnock FC gets underway.
- 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.
- 8' It’s gonna be a card for Corrie Ndaba.
- 13' Corrie Ndaba has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 18' It looks like no one’s ball. Hibernian FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 23' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 28' 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.
- 33' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 38' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 43' With 1 assists to his name this season, Nectarios Triantis is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Kilmarnock FC.
- 48' Bruce Anderson, a Scotland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 50' A goal from the England international Joe Newell! He fires home on 50 to make it 0-1!
- 55' Chris Cadden has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 58' Matty Kennedy picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 62' Hibernian FC ring the changes. Rudi Molotnikov has done his job and it is now time for Chris Cadden to step up.
- 63' Mykola Kukharevych has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 63.
- 66' It’s gonna be a card for Lewis Miller.
- 70' Jordan Obita has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 70.
- 73' The supporters are chanting for Innes Cameron. He replaces Danny Armstrong on 73 minute.
- 74' A tactical swap from Kilmarnock FC — Jack Burroughs on, Corrie Ndaba off on 74 minutes.
- 79' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Kilmarnock FC winning 100% of all matches.
- 84' 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 Martin Boyle suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' Over 89 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- The final score is 1-1.
