Min 0: Arbroath opens up with a 5-2-3 N while the Jam Tarts will play a 4-3-3 N.
Min 0: Today's referee is Peter Babcock (HOMER/FAIR).
Min 1: Fraser Taylor breaks up the play in the middle of the park...
        ...and puts Prince William on the attack down the right...
        ...the American cuts inside, evades Craig Levein's challenge...
        ...and flights the ball past a static Tim Vine and over the bar.
Min 9: Arthur Seat looks to nip the ball past James Whale (ARB)...
        ...but is brought down with a late challenge...
        ...that's a booking for James Whale.
Min 21: Prince William (ARB) and Sandy Lyle break for Arbroath...
        ...Sandy Lyle looks to have found space into which to recieve Prince William's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Alan McLaren (HEA) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 29: The Refs whistle is blown...
        ...Kye Rowles looks bewildered at the site of a yellow card...
        ...as are the away fans...
        ...A rousing chorus of We hate the man in black starts in the stands.
Min 33: Graeme Souness (HEA) crosses after some neat tricks inside the area...
        ...and Arthur Seat heads in from close range...
        ...its in the net GOAL!!...
        ...a superb play and the early lead for the Jam Tarts...
        ...score now: ARB 0 - HEA 1
Min 37: Prince William opts to attack the goal on his own...
        ...Campbell Barclay greets the intruder at the gate and strips him of the ball.?
Min 38: Lando Norris (HEA) booked for what looked like a dive by the home side's James Whale. ...
        ...He is unlucky to get a yellow card for that. Away fans give the ref some Scottish verbal abuse!


HALFTIME SCORE: Arbroath 0 - Heart of Midlothian 1

Min 51: Superb sliding block by Thomas O Brien (ARB) denies Lando Norris a sure goal...
        ...after great work from Arthur Seat in the Arbroath box.
Min 58: Arthur Seat (HEA) nods the ball down for Alan McLaren on the edge of the box...
        ...Alan McLaren takes a heavy touch into the box...
        ...and Norway rushes of his line...
        ...Alan McLaren gets there first...
        ...but his chip is deflected out of danger by an alert Alex McLeish (ARB)!
Min 60: Prince William (ARB) hits a sweet half-volley...
        ...caught by Tim Vine!
Min 68: Cheeky back heel from Kye Rowles to release Alex Rae in the box...
        ...but the American is flagged to have been off-side.  Calls for VAR in SESL? 
Min 70: With Arbroath so far forward a rare Heart of Midlothian break sees Blair Spittal play a long diagonal pass for Arthur Seat...
        ...he has acres of space but has wandered off-side. 
Min 77: Craig Levein (HEA) and Lando Norris break for Heart of Midlothian...
        ...Lando Norris looks to have found space into which to recieve Craig Levein's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Roger Anderson (ARB) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 79: Fraser Taylor weaves his way through the Heart of Midlothian defense......
        ...he checks the keeper's position...
        ...he'll take a chance on his own and ignore assistance from his flank......
        ...and the shot falls harmlessly into the arms of Tim Vine!?
Min 80: John Robertson (HEA) finds Alex Rae with a first-time pass...
        ...Alex Rae shoots from the edge of the area...
        ...but the ball arcs over the bar.
