A poor game. Howden was injured in a goalmouth scramble early on and taken to hospital at half-time. McKenzie went into goal. Trailing at half-time, a pen soon after the restart doubled the lead. Lowry scored with a drooping shot the keeper thought was going wide but Hibs got their 3rd near the end.
