Hibs 2-0 Kilmarnock: Magennis and Nisbet on target in League Cup win
Hibs are safely through to the quarter-finals of the Premier Sports Cup after a 2-0 win against Kilmarnock at Easter Road.
After a goalless first half in which both teams had chances to go in front including a 25-yard effort from Liam Polworth that cannoned off the underside of the bar, Kyle Magennis fired Hibs ahead after Kevin Nisbet squared the ball for the midfielder.
Nisbet made it two as he beat Killie’s offside trap to head Joe Newell’s cross into the bottom corner.
