Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — St. Johnstone FC and Hibernian FC get this one started.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Hibernian FC that had 298 games and scored 389 goals.
  • 10' Both keepers have barely been tested. St. Johnstone FC and Hibernian FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' 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' St. Johnstone FC have won 248 goals from 252 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 26' Craig Bryson catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 26.
  • 31' Hibernian FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 36' It looks surprising Hibernian FC does not make any changes. James Gullan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 40' A goal from the Scotland international Ryan Porteous! He fires home on 40 to make it 1-0!
  • 45' It’s a booking for St. Johnstone FC player. Craig Bryson gets a Red card.
  • 46' Another change for St. Johnstone FC made on 46 minute. Eetu Vertainen leaves to be changed by Cameron MacPherson.
  • 51' 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 Kevin Nisbet suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' Murray Davidson catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 56.
  • 61' Hibernian FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 62' The Hibernian FC bench stirs into life. Paul McGinn is withdrawn and Jamie Murphy gets his opportunity.
  • 67' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 71' Scott Allan has so much to prove this time. He replaces James Gullan on 71 minute.
  • 74' The supporters are chanting for James Brown. He replaces Shaun Rooney on 74 minute.
  • 77' Hibernian FC make a change. Jake Doyle-Hayes trudges off to be replaced by James Scott on 77 minutes.
  • 81' Poor challenge from James Brown. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 83' Magnificent from Kevin Nisbet! That is 49 goals in 298 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 85' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Josh Campbell.
  • 86' Hibernian FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Jamie Murphy on 86.
  • 87' It is a substitution in St. Johnstone FC team. Murray Davidson is replaced by Viv Solomon-Otabor on 87 minute.
