. Joel Pereira - 4
Debatable whether he could have done more at the opener, but definitely should've stopped Ali McCann's strike. Had another couple of scary moments too. | other Photo: SNS

. Sean Clare - 7
Some questions defensively as Saints routinely got in behind Hearts' right-hand side, but he was strong going forward and netted a stunner. | other Photo: SNS

. Aidy White - 5
Another who sometimes overdid it a little going forward as St Johnstone had joy down the wings. | other Photo: SNS

. Craig Halkett - 5
Was constantly turned by the Saints defence in the second half, though he perhaps deserves the benefit of the doubt for having little protection. Gave away the penalty. | other Photo: SNS

. John Souttar - 7
The only one of the defence not to have a poor game. Made some big challenges, used the ball well and had an assist for Hearts' second. | other Photo: SNS

Protected the defence well in the first half but was overrun in the second. | other Photo: SNS

7. Euan Henderson - 6
Put in a shift but lacked a bit of quality in the final third. | other Photo: SNS

8. Andy Irving - 6
Played well in the first half as Hearts were on top. Another who blotted his copybook after half-time as his usual composure deserted him at times. | other Photo: SNS
