A good afternoon for Rudi Molotnikov as Adam Hodge suffered a difficult opening half hour.

Hibernian

Jordan Smith Had almost nothing to do bar a few passes under little pressure. 6

Lewis Miller An assist from his right hand side seemed but his good runs were let down by a lack of accuracy in the final third. 6

Jack Iredale Long ball created goal. Was given acres of space on the ball to help start attacks. 7

Rocky Bushiri Up against Mulcahy and muscled him off the ball more than once. Looking increasingly confident with the ball too. Brought off at half time as Gray looked to try something else. 7

Warren O’Hora Did well to keep finding Miller and like his fellow defenders, had far too much time on the ball. Fairly easy outing. 7

Rudi Molotnikov An encouraging performance from the eighteen year old who has had to fight his way back into the side. Confident on the ball and brought energy to a side flatlining in the first half. Despite a few efforts off target, eventually found the net. 8

Dylan Levitt Has had to fight for place in the squad but was too loose in possession and was brought off after an underwhelming outing. 6

Hyeokku Kwon Recycled the ball well but the side needed a little bit more bravery from the midfielder on the ball in the first half.  Brought off with the job done. 6

Junior Hoilett Good work to collect Iredale’s ball and grab an assist. Needed to be more accurate with attempts on goal but overall solid. 7

Martin Boyle Another goal for the man who can’t stop scoring now with six from his last three. Doesn’t always look busy but appears when it matters. Floated cross saw him assist Molotnikov. 8

Mykola Kuharevich Another who is returning to the squad but was hardly involved and was hooked at break. Looks an awkward fit for this side. 4

SUBSTITUTES: Chris Cadden (for Bushiri 46′) Immediate impact with pass to Boyle for cross 7; Josh Campbell (for Kuharevich 46′) Brought some attacking impetus to stagnating midfield 7; Luke Amos (for Levitt 63′) Tidy in possession without needing to do too much 6; Kieron Bowie (for Boyle 63′) Return from difficult injury spell. Couple of flashes on the ball 6; Liam Gillie (for Kwon 72′) One wayward cross but overall solid outing for his debut at just sixteen 6.

Clydebank

Andrew Leishman Made a good save but was easily beaten for each of the goals. 5

James Grant Strong in his duel with Miller and had to defend a very busy left hand side. 6

David Syme Let Boyle ghost past him far too easily for the first goal and had some arguments with McHugh about passing the ball out from the back. 5

Oisin McHugh Struggling to get ball away playing out back. Did well to make Kurharevich look invisible but ultimately should have done more to prevent floating cross for third. 5

Adam Hodge Huge mistake allowed goal after ninety seconds. Later booked after jumping into Kwon. Difficult evening ended in the 35th minute after a hamstring niggle. 4

Nicky Low The pivot looked to control the midfield but was nullified by Hoilett and had litte impact until he fired a shot well over. 5

Dean Cairns Overwhelmed in midfield. Forced to defend deep. Made save off line. Should have stuck with Molotnikov for second. 5

Craig Truesdale Frustrations at game passing him by lead to pushing Miller in back. 5

Nicky Little Had little time or space to work on the ball. More work defensively than anything else. 5

Lee Gallacher struggled to get the better of O’Hora. Lack of players going forward meant no one to work off. 5

Ciaran Mulcahy Came up against Bushiri and was dominated. The striker was caught offside far too many times. 4

SUBSTITUTES:  Christopher McGowan (for Hodge 36′) Good block to deny Molotnikov and Hoilett but let Boyle cross for third 5; Daniel Mackenzie (for Truesdale 68′) n/a; Kier Samson (for Mulcahy 68′) n/a; Liam McGonigle (for Gallacher 78′) n/a; Jamie Darroch (McHugh 78′) n/a.
