Lewis Smith
Hamilton's first effort on target and they open the scoring as Lewis Smith steers a lovely shot into the far corner of the net from the edge of the area. Not bad for a 19-year-old trying to establish himself in the game.

GOAL St Johnstone 1-2 Livingstonpublished at 15:13 British Summer Time 10 August 2019
Matt Kennedy
St Johnstone pull a goal back out of nothing after a horrendous pass-back from Keaghan Jacobs is intercepted by Michael O’Halloran, who takes advancing goalkeeper Ross Stewart out of the equation with a square pass to Matty Kennedy. The winger then wriggles past an opponent to knock in to the back of the empty net from close range.

St Johnstone 0-2 Livingston
Nicky Devlin latches on to a knock-on and tries his lucky with a mid-air volley and among a number of St Johnstone defenders but he mishits the shot and it goes flying over the bar.

PENALTY APPEALpublished at 15:07 British Summer Time 10 August 2019
Hearts 0-0 Ross County
Ian Vigurs makes a bit of a meal of a clearance and it comes off his arm in the box. No penalty - the correct decision under the new rules. Defenders who hit the ball off their own arm while clearing the ball will not be penalised.

KICK-OFFpublished at 15:01 British Summer Time 10 August 2019

The St Johnstone players are sure to have some strong words from Tommy Wright ringing in their ears.

An update for Ross County fans. Joe Chalmers' absence from today's squad is because his partner gave birth last night. Think we can excuse him for that one.
Whelan move 'still possible' - Leveinpublished at 14:52 British Summer Time 10 August 2019
Hearts v Ross County (15:00)
Hearts are still in the market for a couple of signings and manager Craig Levein confirms Republic of Ireland international Glenn Whelan could be one of them.
"It's still a possibility", Levein said of a move for 35-year-old Whelan, who made 36 appearances for Aston Villa last term before his release.
"There's maybe another one after that as well, so we'll just see," Levein added.

HALF-TIME St Johnstone 0-2 Livingstonpublished at 14:48 British Summer Time 10 August 2019
Image source, SNSSt Johnstone's dreadful start to the season seems to be continuing as Livingston look set to pick up all three points at McDiarmid Park.
The travelling side took the lead after just 13 minutes through a smart finish from Scott Pittman deep inside the Saints box before Stevie Lawless banged in a second from 18 yards.
The home side have threatened from distance at times but don't look up to the task of overturning a two-goal deficit anytime soon.
'Pitch is ok' - Leveinpublished at 14:47 British Summer Time 10 August 2019
Hearts v Ross County (15:00)
Hearts manager Craig Levein says the appearance of the pitch belies its fitness for football after hosting the opening of the Edinburgh festival eight days ago.
He tells Sportsound: "It wasn't about money, the tickets were free. It was more about prestige and being involved in the opening of the Edinburgh Festival. The people who look after the pitch for us have assured us it won't affect the stability and the boys trained on it yesterday and it was fine. It doesn't look great but it's ok."

Stevie Lawless
After a brief spell of dominance in the St Johnstone final third, Steven Lawless finds plenty of time and space on the edge of the box to fire a curling shot towards goal. It's not the most emphatic shot in the world but it bounces in to the bottom right corner.
