    Greg Docherty

    Game over!

    It's all too easy for the Hibees. Martin Boyle waltzes forward, pass out to Paul McGinn on the right to cross for Docherty. The on-loan Rangers man has time to take a touch, look up and finish into the far corner.

    Nicely done. Job done.

    James Keatings, a Scottish Cup winner with Hibernian in 2016, hits the wall with his free-kick. It doesn't look to be Inverness's night.

    That stuff spoils Scottish football. [Fourth official] John Beaton has let himself down by yellow carding John Robertson there. And yet when you bump into the officials after the game, they want to be your friends. It frustrates the life out of me.

    Inverness defender Kevin McHattie gets a yellow card, swiftly joined by his manager John Robertson for some protests.

    The Hibs fans enjoyed that one!

    From the resulting free-kick, Mark Ridgers flies across his goal to deny Christian Doidge a goal.

    Aaron Doran drives the ball goalwards but again Ofir Marciano is alert and gathers.

    Back to the Inverness penalty claim, Lewis Stevenson does look to have a hold of Carl Tremarco...

    Anyway, Stevenson curls a cross along the six yard box, but Christian Doidge can't get there.

    Some finish by Scott Allan, by the way. There were two defenders blocking the goal but he lifts it over them to score.

    A huge blow for Inverness, who had started really brightly in search of an equaliser.

    That goal just typifies Hibs. Attacking with real pace and piling bodies forward. But it could have been a penalty at the other end.

    Scott Allan

    Devastating counter.

    Martin Boyle scampers up the park, slips in Martin McNulty who squares for Scott Allan to dispatch high into the net.

    Inverness felt they should have had a penalty at the other end before Hibs broke up the pitch. Carl Tremarco is shaking his head in fury.

    Some last-ditch defending gets Inverness out of a bit of bother. They counter and a lovely scooped pass finds Jordan White, who manages to bring it down nicely before smashing a volley goalwards.

    It's blocked, though. The Championship side are impressive on the ball.

    Inverness will be happy they have opened up Hibs twice in the second half already. As long as it's still 1-0, Inverness will have belief they can get something from the game and they're definitely capable of doing it'

    Ofir Marciano has to come out and punch a cross from Inverness clear, Hibs counter and Scott Allan blazes one over the bar.

    The tempo has dropped a bit since the break, not as many gaps appearing.

    Inverness have started brightly. Striker Jordan White chests down a free-kick and lays it to Tom Walsh who forces another save from Ofir Marciano.

    Our 100% scientific poll has concluded by a rough estimate that 75% of you think centre-backs should NEVER take penalties.

    I think Paul Hanlon might have taken the last of his career...

    Second half coming up! Hibs have been good value but have a habit of letting leads slip at Easter Road, like last week against Livingston....

    Most of the danger is coming down Hibs' right-hand side. Carl Tremarco is not getting close enough to Martin Boyle, he needs to go toe to toe and try to stop him running the show.

    After that Paul Hanlon miss, let's get your thoughts on centre-halves taking penalties. Should they EVER take spot-kicks?

    Sergio Ramos aside, maybe. Thumbs up for aye, thumbs down for naw.

  20. HALF-TIME - Hibernian 1-0 Inverness CTpublished at 20:33 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2020

    A dramatic first half comes to an end with Hibernian in front courtesy of Adam Jackson's composed finish.

    Before that, Paul Hanlon missed a penalty and Martin Boyle was booked for diving for trying to win another, with replays inconclusive.

    Inverness have been decent, Ofir Marciano doing brilliantly to tip Tom Walsh's effort on to the post. We have a game on our hands!
