  1. 'Cowie furious'published at 16:06 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December

    Ross County boss Don Cowie furious with referee Lloyd Wilson at the break. The ref appeared to put his whistle to his mouth to blow for the break as the five minutes of added time were up, only to allow Hibs to go forward and score an equaliser they scarcely deserved.

    Hibs will have to do much more in the second period to appease the fans who were frustrated by what they were watching from the home side.

    More of the same in the second half, please. Although, this keyboard has taken a bit of a battering...

  3. HALF-TIME Hibernian 1-1 Ross Countypublished at 15:55 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December

    These Ross County fans were certainly full of festive cheer at Easter Road, until the stroke of half-time.

    There aren't many who were in the home end. Hibs went behind to Eli Campbell's early header and huffed and puffed in response without having any real joy until the Dwight Gayle leveller in added time.

    There's been plenty of flailing arms in frustration from the home players, and one suspects they'll get a rocket during the interval.

  4. HALF-TIME Motherwell 3-1 Dundee Unitedpublished at 15:55 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December

    Despite an even first half, it's Motherwell who have been more clinical and they go into the sheds two goals clear of the visitors.

    It was a frenetic start as both sides scored in the first 10 minutes, and it took us another 20 minutes to get the next goal.

    Andy Halliday and Apostolos Stamatelopolous scored the next two goals after Sam Dalby's penalty had cancelled out the Stamatelopolous opener.

    Dwight Gayle

    Hibs - who have created next to nothing all game - equalise on the stroke of half-time.

    Junior Hoilett floats a ball to the near post, Ross County goalkeeper Jack Hamilton inexplicably goes walkabout and Dwight Gayle heads into an empty net.

  7. 'Plenty to ponder for Valakari'published at 15:51 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December

    HT: St Johnstone 0-1 St Mirren

    Tyrone Smith
    BBC Sport Scotland at McDiarmid Park

    St Mirren deserving of the lead, make no mistake about that.

    Yes, there haven't been many chances in this game, but the visitors have been comfortable against a side that have offered virtually nothing in an attacking sense, and look like they can be got at at the back.

    Not a great recipe for St Johnstone - plenty for Simo Valakari to ponder during the interval.

  8. HALF-TIME St Johnstone 0-1 St Mirrenpublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December

    A dominant first-half display from the visitors with only one goal to show for it.

    That goal from Killian Phillips is the only thing separating the two at the break, despite numerous chances for Stephen Robinson's side.

    St Johnstone will need to be a lot better in the second half if they want to take anything.

    Apostolos Stamatelopoulos

    That's a terrific goal!

    It's a brilliant ball in from Tawanda Maswanhise, Stamatelopoulos rises beautifully to nod past the keeper.

    What a game this has been.

    St Johnstone 0-1 St Mirren

    St Mirren win a free-kick about 25 yards from the St Johnstone goal.

    Conor McMenamin, who's back on the pitch, floats it into the box but it's easily cleared by the St Johnstone defence.

    Up the other end Adama Sidibeh heads over from a St Johnstone corner.

    St Johnstone 0-1 St Mirren

    St Johnstone finally manage to mount a decent attack, Matt Smith sends an effort into the St Mirren box - not sure if it's a shot or a cross - but it's an easy catch for Ellery Balcombe.

    It now looks like the visitors are going to be forced into a change with Conor McMenamin down getting treatment.
