GOAL ST JOHNSTONE!
Porteous does well to win the ball back on the edge of his box but he inexplicably passes it straight to former Hibs loanee Glenn Middleton, who finishes beyond Marciano from the edge of the box. The defender will *not* want to see that back again - it’s St Johnstone’s first real chance of the game! And a little bit of a “shh” celebration from the goalscorer... 👀
Marciano takes a cross ball and sends Doig away down the line. After a few exchanges of passes Hibs have a throw-in level with the St Johnstone penalty spot
