Welcome to use sports scene, we two of the Premiership season. No wild | :00:40. | :00:55. | |
predictions as to who will win. It is important we'll stay fully flow, | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
definitely not in pants. Steven Thompson, Michael Stewart, and a man | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
who has just during the 100 club. Kris Boyd. Stunning goal, from | :01:10. | :01:17. | |
Kilmarnock's top marksman. Scottish football's deadliest gunslinger. A | :01:18. | :01:25. | |
warm sporting welcome to Chris Boyd, who has just hit treble figures for | :01:26. | :01:33. | |
Kilmarnock. We two began at dens Park. Jane Hemmings and Greg Stewart | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
had gone. Arranges the visitors. Mark Warburton's side held to a draw | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
on the opening weekend by Hamilton Academicals. | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
Dundee's striking stars, Stewart and Hemmings had they been sold. This is | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
a team that won well on the first weekend of the season. Six changes | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
after the League Cup defeat at Peterhead. Niko Kranjcar out. | :02:05. | :02:15. | |
Michael Duffy caught in possession by Andy Halliday. The ball breaks | :02:16. | :02:24. | |
for Harry Forrester. Always excitement when he is on the ball | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
for Rangers fans. Now Lee Wallace, all the time he wants to drive back | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
across goal. Clawed away by the Dundee goalkeeper. Rangers attacking | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
at will. Not too much at the moment standing in their way. | :02:44. | :02:54. | |
Switching from one side to another. James Tavernier, scrambled away. | :02:55. | :03:04. | |
Barrie McKay. Harry Forrester. Brilliant finish. Rangers in front | :03:05. | :03:14. | |
after 14 minutes. He made all the difference, against Hamilton last | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
week coming off the bench. His snapshot firing ranges in front. -- | :03:20. | :03:31. | |
Rangers in front. James Vincent, formerly of Inverness Caledonian | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
Thistle. Danny Williams gets away from Wallace. Straight at | :03:34. | :03:42. | |
Fotheringham. Shame is a Greg Stewart, for the Dundee fans, | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
lacking a finish. -- shades of Greg Stewart. Halladay, on the move | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
again, Wallace getting in behind, Forrester. Dangerous moments for | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
Dundee. They are being played off the pitch. The game might already | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
have slipped out of their grasp. Constant torment, Forrester. The | :04:10. | :04:18. | |
Longcross rescued by Barrie McKay. Forrester. Threatening again. | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
Finding room at the back post. Wilson turning away from the | :04:25. | :04:48. | |
challenge of O'Hara. Wallace, Kenny Miller, 2-0. Six minutes away from | :04:49. | :05:00. | |
half-time. Kenny Miller doing the rest. First goal of the season. 2-0, | :05:01. | :05:10. | |
no more than they deserve. Back from the gallon, to the 20-year-old Kerr. | :05:11. | :05:25. | |
Willie Mackay, Kenny Miller. Miller showing the keeper too much of the | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
ball. Rangers could have been home and hosed. On Miller. Should have | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
been scoring really. Rory Loy feeding off scraps so far. | :05:35. | :05:57. | |
Does well to win the corner kick. Danny Williams, Mark O'Hara, free | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
header. To score his first goal for Dundee. Changes the complexion of | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
this game. Could have been 4-0 Rangers, now 2-1. This could be a | :06:12. | :06:21. | |
lifeline for Paul Hartley's team. Court late. That will be a booking, | :06:22. | :06:31. | |
for the man who scored the opening goal of the game. That will hurt. | :06:32. | :06:40. | |
Wallace, for Forrester. That was a wild swing by Harry Forrester. Burke | :06:41. | :06:54. | |
just a couple of moments ago. The card is staying in the pocket this | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
time, for Craig Thomson. Much to Forrester's relief. | :07:01. | :07:09. | |
Opare does well, moving it to Miller. Having a great game for | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
Dundee, the former Kilmarnock full-back. There is Duffy. Big | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
chance gone for Dundee. In the context of this game, two over. One | :07:25. | :07:38. | |
was Vincent, one was Duffy. Forrester, skipping away from the | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
challenge. Wild lunge from him. Did he get a touch on the ball? | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
Certainly getting a bit of Duffy. The Dundee fans screaming for the | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
second yellow card, for Forrester. Long ball down the middle. Danny | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
Williams, behind Lee Wallace. Wes Foderingham makes the save. That was | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
a chance, to level things up. Dundee were so far out of this game in the | :08:11. | :08:20. | |
first hour. Dundee substitute looking to make his presence felt. | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
Here is Thompson. Straight at the goalkeeper. Get out of jail card, | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
for Fotheringham. Terrible kick out. Different game now at dens Park. | :08:34. | :08:47. | |
Long ball finding Williams. Can he squeeze this in? Certainly does, | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
sliced over his own crossbar by Danny Wilson. Suddenly panic | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
stations at the back, for Rangers. Good skill, good flick. In goes | :08:57. | :09:10. | |
Barrie McKay. Can he tie things up? Fingertips. Diverting that around | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
the post. Rangers finishing strongly, as they started this | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
match. In between some shaky moments. It is the final whistle. | :09:22. | :09:34. | |
Rangers have all three points. Second half, really good, intensity, | :09:35. | :09:45. | |
quality was better. First half not as good keeping the ball, over | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
police, encouraging signs. Rangers the first Premiership win of the | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
season. The good, bad and ugly, you have to say on display. First, the | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
good. Vastly improved performance, from the Hamilton game. Started | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
well, intensity, possession as you would expect, excellent. The passing | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
was crisp, much improved performance. The interplay between | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
Barrie McKay and Lee Wallace superb down the left. We have seen them do | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
this later times. Wallace overlapping. This leads to the first | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
goal. Instinctively on the left foot, proving he can still do it at | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
age 30 six. Down the left-hand side, first-time ball around the corner by | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
Barrie McKay. Wallace charting this town, winning it back, recycling the | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
play. Harry Forrester trying to get the shot off. Barrie McKay was | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
excellent, involved in lots of Rangers' positive play. First touch, | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
skill getting around a defender. Kenny Miller should have scored. | :10:55. | :11:01. | |
Rangers probably should have been three or four up at half-time. So | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
many good things to say about the attacking display in the first half. | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
In terms of the bad, defensively, set pieces. Not the first time we | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
have seen this. Corners against. The biggest one was the Scottish Cup | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
final, losing two goals from corners. Individual errors, people | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
switching. Andy Halliday marking from David Gray getting half a yard. | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
Gets to the ball in front of him. Costing Rangers the cup final. Rob | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
Kiernan dropping his marker. Joey Barton drops his man. Both of them | :11:38. | :11:46. | |
are totally free. Mark O'Hara getting on the end of it. Neither | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
the players he should have been picking them up were anywhere near | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
them. The set plays, two guys, Rossiter and Kenny Miller, | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
highlighted on the six yard box. Never seen a setup like that. If you | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
have zonal and man marking, the best headers only six yard box, then | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
other guys going to block the runs. Rangers have the reverse, the main | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
header giving man for man. We used to do it like that. Lee McCulloch on | :12:17. | :12:27. | |
the six yard box. We had big people going to win the ball. No disrespect | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
to Kenny Miller, he will not jump for the ball. If you are doing that, | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
the main markers marking players, they have to make sure they do not | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
ball watch. Ultimately what happens. Mark Warburton admitting they were | :12:42. | :12:47. | |
loose, giving the ball away cheaply. He said another referee could have | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
sent up Harry Forrester. Should the referee have sent off? This foul, | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
where he gets the booking, for me, the least bad. This one, loses the | :12:58. | :13:07. | |
ball, a swipe. That is a booking. No danger that is anything other than a | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
yellow card. The third tackle, the worst of the lot. Straight red card? | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
If he had been given a red card, there would not be any complaints. | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
He might get some of the ball, but he goes right over the top of it. | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
That is reckless. The force in that tackle, red card. No complaints. The | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
first tackle, the least bad out of them all. Getting the yellow card. | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
Whatever permutation, Rangers should have been down to ten men. Mark | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
O'Hara, one of the stars, right back at Kilmarnock. Was it realised he | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
was more than decent midfielder? He was a guy with a lot of ability, | :13:50. | :13:56. | |
getting about the pitch. If the right back or suspended, he would | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
find himself there, if there was midfielder is missing from the | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
midfield. Paul Hartley has found a role, with the way he was playing, | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
he's enjoying his football. Scoring goals. I saw an interview with him, | :14:10. | :14:17. | |
speaking about wanting to get to Dundee, hopefully getting the number | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
ten position, he feels is naturally best position. Some players get | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
shunted around from area to area, it actually harms them. He has found | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
himself in a role where he is settled. Taking in too much | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
information from other positions. He is settled. Injuring his football. | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
Ross County looking to bounce back from their opening weekend defeat to | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
Dundee. Inverness Caledonian Thistle, three wins out of four | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
macro in the cup, last week they lost to Partick Thistle, and dumped | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
out of the cup by League 1 side calibre athletics. Could they find | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
their form in the first Highland derby of the season? Commentary from | :15:00. | :15:00. | |
Paul Mitchell. A cup last to Alloa Athletic, | :15:01. | :15:28. | |
stinging them midweek. Four macro changes in the level. Rob Draper | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
coming into midfield. Opening-day league loss against Dundee, Jim | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
McIntyre makes alterations, Foster and Craig: coming in. -- Craig | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
Curran. Squaring the play. Plays the ball | :15:47. | :16:08. | |
onto Paul Curran. Boyce has scored. Inverness Caley Thistle filleted | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
down the middle. The header from Boyce. Right in between the two | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
central defenders. Goalkeeper no chance. Ross County take the lead. | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
Liam Boyce. Tanzi, King cannot get there. Paul | :16:22. | :16:42. | |
Curran. Foster. Brilliant first touch from Boyce. Better second | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
touch. Second goal for Liam Boyce. What a great first half Ross County | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
are having. Foster delivered. The defender taking out of the game | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
completely. Boyce would not miss from there. Two up in 26 minutes, | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
both from Liam Boyce. Caley Thistle, no wins in the first | :17:05. | :17:13. | |
six league games last season. Looking to get back into things. The | :17:14. | :17:20. | |
whistle goes, the ball in the net. Andrew Dallas looking across. No | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
flag. Trying to explain, the goal has been given. I am not sure Ross | :17:26. | :17:31. | |
County realise it. Inverness Caley Thistle pulling one back at | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
half-time. Here come the complaints, they are vocal and many. Scott Fox | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
saying I stopped. Referee Andrew Dallas explaining this is a goal. He | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
appeared to be offside. The last touch may have come from Davis. No | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
offside flag. Inverness Caley Thistle getting a lifeline on | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
half-time. Andrew Dallas not endearing himself to Ross County. | :17:58. | :18:05. | |
The free kick comes in. Liam Boyce helping himself, another simple | :18:06. | :18:13. | |
header. Patrick for Liam Boyce. His third is a Ross County player. You | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
have to question the defending. And the positioning of the goalkeeper, | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
so far to the post. Simple header from Liam Boyce. The hat-trick man. | :18:24. | :18:34. | |
Try to send it wide. Ross County lost the opening game of last | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
season, winning the second. Losing their opening game this season, well | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
ahead here. Into the middle, Davis. Down to Draper. Rust Reither | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
thumping Caley Thistle backing into the match. Simple drive of the right | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
boot. Ross Draper after 65 minutes, winning the home side another goal. | :18:59. | :19:12. | |
Tanzi floating it up. Little flick on. Well played by the big defender. | :19:13. | :19:22. | |
The big number three has been out for the last three games, showing | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
his value there. A bit more nervous now, Jim McIntyre. Another long | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
throw, flicked on. Davis trying to get the ball away. Was there a | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
Polish? Liam Boyce looking nervously at Andrew Dallas. Contact, not | :19:40. | :19:47. | |
above. Time running out for the home side. Ross Draper, sending into the | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
middle. Header down the middle. Chance. Liam Bell worth coming in. | :19:54. | :20:01. | |
Bad defending in the game. Andrew Davies presenting it to him, but not | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
on target. Delighted, right from the off, we were at it. Scored some | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
fantastic goals. Specially the first two. Liam's second goal fit to grace | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
any league in the world. Fantastic take. Dummying the defender, putting | :20:19. | :20:27. | |
it away. We gave Inverness their first goal, by not managing the game | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
properly, two minutes before half-time. Disappointing. We said to | :20:34. | :20:41. | |
the players, keep doing what they were doing. We knew Inverness would | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
apply pressure. That is the way it worked out. I thought we were worthy | :20:47. | :20:47. | |
winners. Liam Boyce was the difference, he | :20:48. | :21:02. | |
has heart, desire and hunger, on and off the ball, the workrate was | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
immense, he believed them to do. Simple as that. The referee has | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
blown the whistle early. I think I'm getting a little bit towards the | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
ball. I think the gaffer said he admitted he was wrong. You can do | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
anything about it. We have the three points. Another defeat for Caley | :21:26. | :21:35. | |
Thistle, Liam Boyce the start. Huge dollop of controversy? Another | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
refereeing mistake. Quite confusing when you watch your back. Andrew | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
Dallas thought the linesman's flag went up for offside. The ball is | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
played through. You can see him blow his whistle. The ball ricochets into | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
The ball ricochets into the back of the net. | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
Looks as if he will give the free kick for offside. The players | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
remonstrate he changes his mind, gives a goal. Puzzling to say the | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
very least. When all is said and done, massive mistake. He was | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
probably on-site. Scott Fox saying he may have saved it. I think he has | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
dived at full stretch. Should have been a drop ball. By the letter of | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
the law, should have been a drop ball. I don't think Scott Fox is | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
getting it. Ultimately did not have an impact on the end result. When | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
you play all through, Scott Fox not getting it, did not make any real | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
difference. Natural justice prevailing. Liam Boyce, hat-trick | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
hero. Enduring some injury hell, missing Euro 2016. 20 goals last | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
year, missing out on the Euros. Great ball into the box. Good header | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
to get off the mark. You were impressed by his coaching skills. | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
Second goal? Unbelievable first touch. I feel for young Steven | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
Thomson. Opens him up, great finish at the end. You think about the | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
first Ross County player to score a hat-trick in the top flight last | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
season. Going the first hat-trick of this season. Great finish them to | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
get the goal with a header. You have to ask questions of Fon Williams. | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
You have to expect a goalkeeper to come out and command the area. The | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
cross had so much height, the goalkeeper comes out, the advantage | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
of getting the arms up. Take nothing away from Liam Boyce. Natural | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
goal-scorer. Bad week for Caley Thistle, far too early to talk about | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
pressure. Three defeats in a row, not ideal. Away at Hearts next week. | :23:51. | :23:59. | |
He said the defending was not good enough. Two defeats in a row in the | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
league. Not a good start. I watched them play against Dunfermline in the | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
League Cup, winning 5-1, I thought they could be really good, but not | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
the start they wanted. Plenty to come, plenty of football on BBC One | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
Scotland in general. You don't want to miss this. A game deeply woven | :24:19. | :24:29. | |
into our communities. With social and political change, Scottish | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
football transform. I was in the room, utter bedlam. Something | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
incredibly exciting. Was it for the good of Scotland's game? We realise | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
the world changed. The escalation of wages, where the rot sets in. | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
Scotland's Game. Tricky start of the season for | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
Kilmarnock, made worse by the sale of last season's top scorer, Josh | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
Magennis, to Charlton. Yesterday they needed a pick me up. Very, very | :25:00. | :25:16. | |
disappointing. Add a glass. He has proved himself quite well since he | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
came in. The important thing, the manager gets the money to spend, to | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
replace him. Realistic, we're not going to be high up the table. Must | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
win already. First six points of the season. | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
The first league start for Darren mine. Kilmarnock, debut for George | :25:40. | :25:54. | |
Green, the day after signing. Kris Boyd comes in. | :25:55. | :26:05. | |
Steven Smith, clipping that forward, to namesake Martin. Jordan Jones, | :26:06. | :26:15. | |
for Boyd, the type of opportunity he normally gobbles up. Kris Boyd | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
raises the hand, in acknowledgement. Badness. -- bad miss. Crawford. A | :26:21. | :26:38. | |
chance for Emory. Blazes over. Only a half chance, really. Capable from | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
there. Gillespie, feeding it through for | :26:43. | :26:56. | |
Longbridge. Taylor. Long-range. Regen in. Jamie MacDonald, alert | :26:57. | :27:05. | |
enough to block the shot. Best chance so far, for Hamilton axes. -- | :27:06. | :27:20. | |
Accies. Crawford, nice touch. Taylor does well to get back with the | :27:21. | :27:28. | |
challenge. Lewis Longbridge. Longbridge firing Hamilton Accies in | :27:29. | :27:38. | |
front. Looks like the chance had gone, when Taylor got the tackling. | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
Showed great composure to pick him out. Powerful, low shot. Zipping by | :27:43. | :27:53. | |
Jamie MacDonald at the near post. Accies make the breakthrough, midway | :27:54. | :27:55. | |
through the first half. Crawford. Lovely ball for Emory, | :27:56. | :28:10. | |
racing away down the right. Crawford continuing the run. Good save, Jamie | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
MacDonald. Terrific move by Hamilton Accies. Almost deserving of a goal. | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
Jamie MacDonald thought otherwise. Again, Emory, room on the right. Can | :28:21. | :28:34. | |
he pick out a team-mate? Not too many options. Doherty. Tamely into | :28:35. | :28:42. | |
the arms of McDonald's. Another well constructed move by the home side. | :28:43. | :28:49. | |
Doherty did not get enough behind that one. | :28:50. | :28:58. | |
Jones looked lively in the first hour. The Saint Cross, Kris Boyd. | :28:59. | :29:10. | |
Kilmarnock are level. Jones set him up in the first half, could not | :29:11. | :29:15. | |
convert on that occasion. This time round, Boyd heading emphatically | :29:16. | :29:21. | |
past Matthews. Lee McCulloch calling the shots in the technical area, | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
Manager Lee Clark in the stand after last week's misdemeanours. Happier | :29:27. | :29:31. | |
to see his side level. Here goes Jones, trying to wreak more havoc on | :29:32. | :29:36. | |
the edge of the Accies box. Free kick, he is claiming it is inside. | :29:37. | :29:40. | |
Steven MacLean tells it just outside. Dangerous, nonetheless. | :29:41. | :29:47. | |
Jones has been a pest. Trying to cause more bother. A poor free kick. | :29:48. | :29:54. | |
Long ball returned up towards Souleymane Coulibaly, creates a bit | :29:55. | :30:04. | |
of space. What a goal from Souleymane Coulibaly! Terrific | :30:05. | :30:13. | |
hold-up play, a bit of skill to find the space and he curled the ball | :30:14. | :30:20. | |
beyond Matthews, and that was special, and so was the celebration. | :30:21. | :30:29. | |
Long ball from Georgios Sarris over the top, great chance for the | :30:30. | :30:38. | |
substitute Roy. Richard Roy really should have got his side back on | :30:39. | :30:43. | |
level terms, but McDonald got a crucial touch. He can't believe his | :30:44. | :30:51. | |
side are behind, chance for them to snatch a point. Gillespie with the | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
follow-up, Crawford denied by the width of the post. | :30:57. | :31:00. | |
I thought we were the better team from start to finish, good food all, | :31:01. | :31:05. | |
lots of opportunities, but we didn't take them. -- good football? We | :31:06. | :31:13. | |
seemed to lose discipline and focus in terms of what was required but | :31:14. | :31:20. | |
the substitutions helped us again. Kilmarnock remain unbeaten at New | :31:21. | :31:31. | |
Douglas Park. Was it a deserved win? We started the game bright and | :31:32. | :31:38. | |
Hamilton scored. As the manager said, when we changed to two | :31:39. | :31:43. | |
upfront, there was not much room to pass in the middle of the pitch. We | :31:44. | :31:47. | |
went forward from back to front quite a bit and we got a success | :31:48. | :31:54. | |
when we went to the two upfront. Two upfront made all of the difference? | :31:55. | :32:01. | |
It is interesting mentioning that the change formation made | :32:02. | :32:05. | |
difference. The clip of the first goal here, it highlights the fact | :32:06. | :32:09. | |
that you look at the number of bodies Kilmarnock have in the final | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
third, six players in there. He is playing up front I submitted, | :32:15. | :32:19. | |
Souleymane Coulibaly has the desire to get on the end of it, rate | :32:20. | :32:24. | |
movement and he finishes off heading into the back of the net. The second | :32:25. | :32:29. | |
goal is a wonderful bit of play from Souleymane Coulibaly, top drawer | :32:30. | :32:34. | |
finish, and I think it just shows that once they had the two players | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
up front it made a big difference and it highlights the fact that Lee | :32:39. | :32:43. | |
Clark is meant to be suspended, he is on the stand on the | :32:44. | :32:47. | |
walkie-talkie, talking about the change of formation. Is there any | :32:48. | :32:51. | |
point in the suspension if he is involved in the changes of | :32:52. | :32:57. | |
formation? Walkie-talkie Gate. Is there any point in him being banned? | :32:58. | :33:03. | |
It seems pointless, I don't know what the rules are, he is giving | :33:04. | :33:07. | |
instructions. He probably could have shouted them from where he was. It | :33:08. | :33:15. | |
kind of makes a mockery of the ban. What is it like at Kilmarnock? So | :33:16. | :33:21. | |
many people are tipping your club to struggle. Last weekend was a big | :33:22. | :33:26. | |
disappointment, leaving the game, shot and the leg, losing the opening | :33:27. | :33:31. | |
game to Motherwell, after the cup competition as well. But yesterday | :33:32. | :33:38. | |
we put on a performance, two massive games coming up, Ross County and | :33:39. | :33:43. | |
Rangers on Friday night. It was important that we got the three | :33:44. | :33:47. | |
point yesterday and we did that. We saw Lee Clark on the walkie-talkie | :33:48. | :33:50. | |
and I am sure he is talking to you all the time, what is he like as a | :33:51. | :34:00. | |
manager? Exactly what you see, he calls a spade a spade. He wants | :34:01. | :34:04. | |
everybody to work as hard as they can, you see that in terms of when | :34:05. | :34:10. | |
we get the ball forward, but the one big thing the manager is always | :34:11. | :34:13. | |
harking on about is picking up the second ball is higher up the pitch. | :34:14. | :34:18. | |
It is effective for us because when you have so many bodies forward, the | :34:19. | :34:22. | |
goal came from picking up the second ball, getting a cross into the box. | :34:23. | :34:27. | |
I have been in the middle to finish it off but with Souleymane Coulibaly | :34:28. | :34:32. | |
as well, it is an unbelievable finish from him. 4-4-2 has gone out | :34:33. | :34:44. | |
of fashion. Souleymane Coulibaly was labelled the new Drogba at one | :34:45. | :34:47. | |
point, what have you see from him in training that gets you excited? His | :34:48. | :34:52. | |
finishing is unbelievable, even in the cup games he scored a couple of | :34:53. | :34:58. | |
goals. Even the way he rolled the defender, came back inside. He | :34:59. | :35:03. | |
didn't even need to look at the goal, always a sign of a great | :35:04. | :35:09. | |
striker. It is a great finish but his celebrations are brilliant as | :35:10. | :35:17. | |
well. We will have a race between you two at the end of the show. | :35:18. | :35:24. | |
Motherwell looking to follow up their victory to Kilmarnock but they | :35:25. | :35:28. | |
faced a St Johnstone side on brilliant form. | :35:29. | :35:38. | |
Motherwell make only one change, Ainsworth takes the place of Stevie | :35:39. | :35:43. | |
Hammell. It is a return to the familiar 4-3-3 formation. Chris | :35:44. | :35:50. | |
Miller and Molly -- Murray Davidson return to midfield and Steven | :35:51. | :35:55. | |
MacLean is back to lead the attack. Saints coming forward. Almost an own | :35:56. | :36:07. | |
goal of Stephen McManus. That was almost an awkward moment for the | :36:08. | :36:17. | |
Motherwell defenders as Hennigan knocked it off McManus. Good touch | :36:18. | :36:28. | |
from Samson, Chris Millar wearing the captain's armband and leading by | :36:29. | :36:34. | |
example. He wanted to have the shop on that occasion. The profiling | :36:35. | :36:47. | |
Craig Clay. -- the throat finding. Neat touch for Marvin Johnston. | :36:48. | :36:53. | |
Ainsworth! He just couldn't get in there on the end of that cross from | :36:54. | :37:00. | |
Johnstone, who is in very good form. St Johnstone have won three of the | :37:01. | :37:04. | |
last four meetings between these sides. There is Craig Clay battling | :37:05. | :37:14. | |
hard in the middle of the park. Richard Tait is calling for it. That | :37:15. | :37:25. | |
is the opening from Motherwell three minutes into the second half. He has | :37:26. | :37:28. | |
been switched to left midfield, Chris Cadden. It was maybe the | :37:29. | :37:38. | |
deflection of Brian Easton that caught out the central defenders of | :37:39. | :37:42. | |
Sam Johnstone but it didn't fool Chris Cadden as he claimed his third | :37:43. | :37:47. | |
goal of the season. Good work by the right full-back. | :37:48. | :37:54. | |
Mark McGhee and happier man than in midweek after the defeat by Celtic. | :37:55. | :38:06. | |
-- a happier. Swanson. Chris Millar with a chip into the box, it is | :38:07. | :38:13. | |
Maclean and Samson Hass to grab that at the second attempt. Maclean | :38:14. | :38:17. | |
couldn't get enough power on the header. | :38:18. | :38:23. | |
Lay for McDonald. Johnson finds Richard Tait again. Chance for | :38:24. | :38:35. | |
Lionel Ainsworth. It breaks back to McDonald and he just couldn't | :38:36. | :38:41. | |
finish, the little experienced striker. Good blog initially from | :38:42. | :38:42. | |
Stephen Anderson to deny Ainsworth. Steven MacLean has done well to ride | :38:43. | :39:04. | |
the challenge and find Swanson. Still Danny Swanson, that is the | :39:05. | :39:08. | |
equaliser. Danny Swanson is on fire at the moment. There is no tracking | :39:09. | :39:15. | |
him. That is his sixth goal of the season. His sixth goal in six starts | :39:16. | :39:23. | |
for the Perth club. Tommy Wright has given this player a new lease of | :39:24. | :39:29. | |
life. He has turned inside Hennigan and deposited that through the legs | :39:30. | :39:30. | |
of Craig Samson. Maclean outside Swanson, Chris came | :39:31. | :39:48. | |
through the middle, lovely pass. Chris Kane really should have done | :39:49. | :39:52. | |
better there and he knows it. Excellent through ball from Swanson. | :39:53. | :40:00. | |
It has broken the way of Chris Cadden. Chris Cadden trying his luck | :40:01. | :40:11. | |
from distance this time, Alan Mannus got a fingertip to it, he has scored | :40:12. | :40:16. | |
once already in this match, looking for a second. Blyth with the flick | :40:17. | :40:26. | |
on, here it is Marvin Johnson, excellent save from McManus to deny | :40:27. | :40:34. | |
Johnson. You can see why Oxford United are interested in Johnson | :40:35. | :40:39. | |
with that effort. Anderson's free kick. Lovely flick by Shaughnessy, | :40:40. | :40:48. | |
he has ridden two tackles. Chris Kane, Steven MacLean! The Motherwell | :40:49. | :40:55. | |
goalkeeper makes a mistake and he is punished. It looked like an easy | :40:56. | :41:00. | |
catch initially for Craig Samson from the shot from Chris Kane but he | :41:01. | :41:07. | |
has bounced it straight in front of Steven MacLean and that is a | :41:08. | :41:12. | |
terrific reaction by the striker, bravely diving into put it home. | :41:13. | :41:19. | |
Steven MacLean's fourth goal of the season. Johnson's free kick. There | :41:20. | :41:30. | |
is McDonald, he has used a hand. He is apologetic but he will get the | :41:31. | :41:37. | |
booking. If he was a bit quicker he may have got his head to it but that | :41:38. | :41:41. | |
was more like an audition for the Australian Olympics team with a | :41:42. | :41:47. | |
volleyball smashed to beat Alan Mannus. Sam Johnstone's three wins | :41:48. | :41:52. | |
over Motherwell saw them come from behind to win 2-1. Will they do it | :41:53. | :41:58. | |
this time there is there one last chance for an equaliser? It is | :41:59. | :42:02. | |
Johnson with it. Put it into the danger area, here is Thomas. He | :42:03. | :42:09. | |
couldn't quite hit the target and that may well be the last | :42:10. | :42:13. | |
opportunity for the home side to get the equaliser. | :42:14. | :42:18. | |
I think the result was right, they were better than us today, they | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
showed more energy, had more desire. We obviously talked about that in | :42:25. | :42:27. | |
the dressing room, how they were feeling in the game, and we were | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
lacking the energy they would normally have. I don't know whether | :42:35. | :42:37. | |
it is the three games in the last week or the result of just Wednesday | :42:38. | :42:41. | |
night and not being able to recover as quickly as they did. They had a | :42:42. | :42:46. | |
very positive result last time which affects you in a different way, we | :42:47. | :42:50. | |
will try to work out why but they were the better side and deserved to | :42:51. | :42:55. | |
win. From a footballing aspect that was our best performance on a passed | :42:56. | :43:00. | |
the ball really well, controlled large spells in the first half, | :43:01. | :43:04. | |
probably didn't make enough of the opportunities but always looking for | :43:05. | :43:14. | |
a goal. We showed character to come back from one goal down away from | :43:15. | :43:17. | |
home. Tommy Wright says best performance | :43:18. | :43:25. | |
of the season and Danny Swanson in particular. It was an inspired | :43:26. | :43:28. | |
performance from him, he looks fitter and stronger than last year | :43:29. | :43:33. | |
and he was involved with an awful lot. A sneaky 1- to there. -- 1-2. | :43:34. | :43:42. | |
This is a fantastic ball for Chris Kane, lovely weighted pass. He | :43:43. | :43:50. | |
probably should score, I don't know whether Samson gets a touch to it. | :43:51. | :43:55. | |
He cuts inside and a near post finish here, here he was, the star | :43:56. | :44:01. | |
man in the team but everyone innocent Johnstone team stayed well, | :44:02. | :44:06. | |
what a start to the season. Sam Johnstone flying, Chris, you went to | :44:07. | :44:15. | |
dinner with Craig Samson. Not a great moment. No, but as a | :44:16. | :44:21. | |
goalkeeper these things happen. The Celtic game during the week... They | :44:22. | :44:27. | |
lost 5-0 but apparently his performance was excellent. I can't | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
render him ever making mistakes like this, it was probably a one-off. He | :44:33. | :44:38. | |
tries to take the sting out of the shot, palms it down. It goes away | :44:39. | :44:44. | |
from him but I will give credit to Steven MacLean for following that | :44:45. | :44:47. | |
in, putting his head in an area where he could get hurt. It is a | :44:48. | :44:54. | |
great three points for St Johnstone. What did Craig say. Not much, he was | :44:55. | :45:01. | |
just getting ready for tonight. Great reaction from Steven MacLean | :45:02. | :45:05. | |
but a great run that St Johnstone are on, they keep proving everybody | :45:06. | :45:09. | |
wrong, they keep getting the results. Next weekend, early | :45:10. | :45:12. | |
kick-off against Celtic big challenge. What more can be said | :45:13. | :45:17. | |
about St Johnstone that hasn't already? They must be the envy of a | :45:18. | :45:21. | |
lot of clubs in the league, they haven't got a huge budget but they | :45:22. | :45:26. | |
continue to challenge at the top end of the table, getting into Europe. | :45:27. | :45:30. | |
Tommy Wright is Mr consistency and it permeates through this team. You | :45:31. | :45:35. | |
sort Motherwell at close quarters at Rugby Park at the weekend, tough | :45:36. | :45:39. | |
week in terms of the hammering they took at Celtic Park and that defeat | :45:40. | :45:44. | |
as well. How do you gauge that Motherwell side this season? Last | :45:45. | :45:50. | |
week they took the game to us, I watched the majority of the Celtic | :45:51. | :45:54. | |
game but it is always difficult at Celtic Park so you can or less write | :45:55. | :46:04. | |
that off. -- more or less. These are the games, against St Johnstone, if | :46:05. | :46:10. | |
they want to get in the top six, Motherwell. They will be | :46:11. | :46:19. | |
disappointed after Rugby Park, trying to get the three points | :46:20. | :46:24. | |
yesterday. Marvin Johnston, it is important that they keep hold of him | :46:25. | :46:28. | |
as well. Aberdeen finished second to Celtic | :46:29. | :46:36. | |
last season. This weekend they faced a Hearts side without Jamie Walker, | :46:37. | :46:40. | |
a figure of much controversy last weekend. | :46:41. | :46:43. | |
There was no contact in my opinion. He attempted to calm the referee. | :46:44. | :46:52. | |
Walker has gone down under the challenge of Tierney. The referee is | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
in no doubt that that is a penalty kick. Derek McInnes brings Ash | :46:57. | :47:04. | |
Taylor with Peter Pawlett free of his early season ban. Stockley is | :47:05. | :47:13. | |
preferred to Rooney. A disappointing season so far far Hearts, out of | :47:14. | :47:16. | |
Europe, out of the League Cup. It doesn't get any easier. Jamie Walker | :47:17. | :47:26. | |
is suspended. Aberdeen don't have a particularly good. They have begun | :47:27. | :47:44. | |
the game pretty good run -- they have begun the game pretty well. | :47:45. | :47:53. | |
Really good run by McGinn. Mixed fortune in the week, the Jambos out. | :47:54. | :48:09. | |
He caught it OK but no direction at all. This is the visitors' first | :48:10. | :48:23. | |
chance of the game. 0-0 at St Johnstone last week for McInnis and | :48:24. | :48:30. | |
Doherty's side. They don't often win on the opening day of the season, | :48:31. | :48:36. | |
Aberdeen. First home game for them here and they are trying to assert | :48:37. | :48:41. | |
themselves, Burns off the bar but the flag was up. Cracking ball in by | :48:42. | :48:51. | |
Niall McGinn. Wes Burns hits the woodwork, it wouldn't have counted. | :48:52. | :48:58. | |
Conceded the threat in the wide areas for Aberdeen. Burns may be | :48:59. | :49:06. | |
just off, very tight, though. -- maybe. Big chances for Hearts, | :49:07. | :49:13. | |
plenty of hype in there, Paterson, Souter in there as well. He possibly | :49:14. | :49:23. | |
should have done better, John Souttar. He didn't get any purchase | :49:24. | :49:34. | |
on it. It is linked towards Nicholson, who is in here. And Shay | :49:35. | :49:39. | |
Logan committed himself. It is a good challenge by the Aberdeen | :49:40. | :49:44. | |
full-back. He had to get that spot on, he got plenty of the ball. Aided | :49:45. | :49:53. | |
by Ryan Jack. McGinn shimmies over it. A teasing ball in by Logan. He | :49:54. | :50:07. | |
was coming into the back to accept this but very good delivery by | :50:08. | :50:15. | |
Logan. Salmond does enough to force it to Tony Watt. He goes himself. He | :50:16. | :50:25. | |
had options left and right but he is a striker, as soon as he sees the | :50:26. | :50:29. | |
goal he will have a go. Jack to Maclean, not long on as a | :50:30. | :50:50. | |
substitute. Niall McGinn, nice ball. It was Peter Pawlett's header. | :50:51. | :50:55. | |
Aberdeen won the first two battles between these two last season, lost | :50:56. | :51:00. | |
the following three, though, including a Scottish Cup exit. | :51:01. | :51:05. | |
Hearts losing out to the champions, Celtic, last weekend. They felt they | :51:06. | :51:13. | |
should have taken something from the game. That has come of Miles Storey, | :51:14. | :51:26. | |
who has got it back to Logan. Perry Kitchener was there. He had to be | :51:27. | :51:29. | |
otherwise Logan is getting a shot in, I think. | :51:30. | :51:35. | |
It worked out OK for Hamilton, Joum to Salmond. He was in Aberdeen | :51:36. | :51:49. | |
target in the summer. Here is Tony Watt, huge chance here! And it is | :51:50. | :51:56. | |
spurned. Well, a fully fit Tony Watt might have done better with that, | :51:57. | :52:00. | |
three minutes to play and this would surely have won the game for Hearts. | :52:01. | :52:08. | |
It is a big miss. In a game of few chances this has been the best one. | :52:09. | :52:15. | |
I thought we were totally dominant bird you credit Hearts, I think in | :52:16. | :52:22. | |
the second half they had one or two opportunities and they defended well | :52:23. | :52:25. | |
in the second half and deserved a draw. Aberdeen were probably the | :52:26. | :52:29. | |
better team first half. It was a tough point for both sides but an | :52:30. | :52:38. | |
entertaining game. Second versus third from last | :52:39. | :52:41. | |
season, I think we all expected a bit more, perhaps not the thriller | :52:42. | :52:45. | |
we were hoping for. Michael, what was the story of the match for you? | :52:46. | :52:53. | |
You were there. It is interesting the managers talking about the game. | :52:54. | :52:58. | |
Aberdeen over the 90 minutes were the better side but Hearts nullified | :52:59. | :53:01. | |
the threat as the game went on but without offering a great deal of | :53:02. | :53:06. | |
attack. Perhaps a draw was a fair result in the end. Aberdeen missing | :53:07. | :53:15. | |
a spark, Jonny Hayes is out. When you looked back over the game it was | :53:16. | :53:19. | |
a good defensive display from Hearts but you were looking if Aberdeen had | :53:20. | :53:24. | |
something different to open up and perhaps Jonny Hayes could have | :53:25. | :53:30. | |
helped them with that. In the opening period Aberdeen bombarded | :53:31. | :53:35. | |
Hearts and they looked energetic, on the front foot, a lot of balls and | :53:36. | :53:39. | |
from the wide areas, Stockley trying to get on the end of it. The best | :53:40. | :53:43. | |
opportunity in the first half was perhaps an opening from the | :53:44. | :53:48. | |
left-hand side that fell to Niall McGinn, who knocked it behind the | :53:49. | :53:51. | |
defence and created an opening for himself. Good defending from Hearts | :53:52. | :53:56. | |
to get a deflection, put over the bar. As the game went on you | :53:57. | :54:00. | |
thought, Aberdeen will bring something different but in the | :54:01. | :54:04. | |
second half it just wasn't there. I think Jonny Hayes has been missed | :54:05. | :54:07. | |
for Aberdeen and I don't know what the guys think that he is a big | :54:08. | :54:14. | |
miss. A bit of a heavy schedule for Aberdeen. Four goals Billy are games | :54:15. | :54:20. | |
in nine days, perhaps some players that he. -- four goals in nine | :54:21. | :54:28. | |
games. That is a lot of games. Even last year we were back -- they were | :54:29. | :54:37. | |
back early, they probably didn't have enough rest. It plays a part. | :54:38. | :54:47. | |
From the Hearts perspective, good defending, bit lacking in attack. | :54:48. | :54:57. | |
That was a bit concerning. The two guys up front, Salmond and Walker... | :54:58. | :55:06. | |
Tony Watt was probably the biggest spark in the attack line for Hearts, | :55:07. | :55:12. | |
he created opportunity, laid it out wide, got in the box. Nichols can | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
try to beat the last defender and he gets blocked and it comes to | :55:19. | :55:23. | |
nothing. Tony Watt ended up getting the best chance of the game, a good | :55:24. | :55:28. | |
bit of play from Conor Sammon who I thought was poor yesterday. You'd | :55:29. | :55:35. | |
think he is a bit slow on the corner... He loses his balance, | :55:36. | :55:42. | |
neither side will be head over heels. Tony Watt has been lacking | :55:43. | :55:48. | |
match sharpness, he has had an injury but do you think he will be a | :55:49. | :55:52. | |
success at Hearts? I think he will, he is at a stage in his career where | :55:53. | :55:59. | |
he needs a run of games. He went to Cardiff and did really well. | :56:00. | :56:07. | |
Briefly, are Hearts to physical? Five yellow cards yesterday, four | :56:08. | :56:12. | |
against St John's, seven against Celtic, 16 in a week. I don't think | :56:13. | :56:18. | |
it is to physical if it is backed up with attractive football but at the | :56:19. | :56:21. | |
moment their style of football is becoming a bit industrial and when | :56:22. | :56:26. | |
you back it up with statistics like that that is concerning. When Robert | :56:27. | :56:32. | |
took over it was very attractive football and now it is more akin to | :56:33. | :56:38. | |
the director of football. Michael, Chris, Stephen, thank you very much | :56:39. | :56:43. | |
for joining us, it has been very interesting. That is it for week two | :56:44. | :56:50. | |
of this football season. Andy Murray is about to get his Olympic final | :56:51. | :56:57. | |
under way over on BBC One, best of luck to him. We are back at 6:30pm | :56:58. | :57:03. | |
next weekend on BBC Two. Until then, from all of us, good night. | :57:04. | :57:12. |
