Half chance for Brown after 25 seconds but he heads wide after good work from Griffiths.
Another half chance - this time for Commons but he shoots straight at Alexander. Hearts are trying to play out from the back and they’re getting caught out by our pressing.
Good effort from Griffiths from distance.
Hearts are kicking everything that moves today.
Lovely half volley from Forrest from just outside the box that smacks the post.
We’re playing some nice stuff.
Best chance so far falls to Rogic clean in on goal and he drags his shot wide. Poor effort but he’s played well so far. Nice work from Forrest to play him in.
Not sure how this is still 0-0. Great cross from Izzy finds Griffiths on the penalty spot but his header just drifts wide.
Ah bad miss from Griffiths. Corner half cleared and it drops to Griffiths 6 yards out with loads of time but he headed it very tamely at the keeper.
That Rogic chance:
Another chance for Griffiths but the ball just spun away from him in the box.
Decent daisy cutter from Bitton from 20-25 yards but comfortably saved.
Half Time 0-0.
Not great since the break. Just a bit sluggish.
Ciftci is on for Rogic.
Griffiths has had a poor game. No lack of effort, just his touch has been off and he hasn’t taken his half chances. 14 to go.
3 mins…
Late chance for Hearts and Ambrose gives up a professional foul. Needed to do it. Red card.
Game over.
Poor result.
We weren’t dreadful but we didn’t take our chances and were too slow for much of the second half. Don’t look threatening enough when Griffiths is off form.
Thought Forrest, Rogic and Bitton were our best players.
Griffiths and Commons were poor.
