Shelley Kerr's Scotland get their World Cup qualifying campaign off to a fine start with their second win in a week.

They top their group on goal difference from Switzerland after a comfortable win over Albania.

A mix-up between visiting goalkeeper Marigona Zani and Lavdie Begoli got them underway. The impressive pair of Fiona Brown and Claire Emslie both scored, with Jane Ross and Lisa Evans also getting in on the act.

Hibs scorer Simon Murray is replaced with Deivydas Matulevicius.

I hope the Lithuania striker doesn't do too much so I don't have to type his name too often!

Hibs on the break and John McGinn's low drive is superbly turned wide by the hand of goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin.

Hearts are suddenly piling on the pressure and Cole Stockton should do better than misfire his shot at the far post.

But it rebounds into the path of Isma and he too is unable to find a good purchase on the ball to threaten goal.

It's been quite a bruising contest at McDiarmid Park for Ross County.

Thomas Mikkelsen played on with a head bandage after taking a sore one and was eventually substituted.

Now County goalkeeper Scott Fox limps off to be replaced by Aaron McCarey.

County go close to taking the lead as Craig Curran's header is blocked on the line by Steven Anderson.

Saints goalkeeper Zander Clark then beats away an effort from Davis Keillor-Dunn.

Just as I said Hearts weren't creating anything, Isma's chip into the box following a corner finds Christophe Berra, but the big Scotland centre-half can't get enough power on the header and goalkeeper Ofir Marciano holds comfortably.

Euan Henderson's first Hearts start comes to an end as the 17-year-old winger is replaced with Cole Stockton.

That's three up front now for the visitors, but they still can't create any pressure never mind chances.

Simon Murray flashes a cross-come-shot across the face of the Hearts penalty box.

The home side continue to dominate.

Hearts are preparing to bring on striker Cole Stockton as Craig Levein plays his final hand.

Another booking at Easter Road as Hearts striker Isma has to back track and pulls down Dylan McGeouch.

After a largely quiet night so far, St Johnstone goalkeeper Zander Clark is called upon to keep out Davis Keillor-Dunn's fierce effort.

Miles Storey is sent in on goal for Thistle following Paul McGinn's pass, but the forward lifts his shot well over.

Hibs' Marvin Bartley goes into the referee's book for a late lunge on Ross Callachan.

As the ref blows the whistle, Bartley's team-mate, Efe Ambrose, is flattened by a stray elbow from Kyle Lafferty.

Heating up at Easter Road!

No improvement in the quality of this match I'm sorry to report. It really has been dire stuff, with neither keeper having to work particularly hard. Miles Storey has just hit the bar, but it was with a wayward cross.

Getting closer to a goal at McDiarmid Park as Murray Davidson heads David Wotherspoon's free-kick wide.

Almost an opener in Hamilton, but it would've been a fluke.

Miles Storey gets away on Thistle's right and his cross drops on to the crossbar before Hamilton get the ball to safety.

St Johnstone looking a lot livelier in the second period with two glorious opportunities in the space of a minute. Paul Paton’s header is brilliantly save by Fox then Aaron Comrie fires wide when he had clear sight of goal just eight yards out.

County have brought on Craig Curran for the ineffective Thomas Mikkelsen up front.
