September update – Midlothian Magic #12

Only four games this month, with two already covered in our match day live post. Let’s jump straight in…

[LEAGUE] Hearts 3 Livingston 0.

Following on from our 5-3 win against Hamilton, we met Livingston at Tynecastle. The team remained the same as we wanted to keep momentum and grab all three points.

In similar fashion to the Hamilton game, we were leading 2-0 at half time strolling through the game. The first half goals come from Uche Ikpeazu and Jamie Walker.

In the second half, Ross Wallace scored the third goal of the game before Livingston parked the bus and prevented Hearts scoring anymore.

[LEAGUE] Hearts 1 Kilmarnock 0.

Another home game in the league and this time against Kilmarnock. Killie were struggling from a massive pre-season where they went through 3 rounds of qualifying for the Europa League, the players were exhausted.

Hearts dominated most of the game but could not find the breakthrough as Killie sat back and defended everything that come at them.

Ryotoro Meshino was introduced in the second half and scored the only goal of the game with a dazzling run and finish.

[CUP] Hearts 1 Aberdeen 3

As detailed in our match day live blog, we met Aberdeen in the quarter finals of the Betfred Cup.

Aberdeen took the lead late in the first half through Niall McGinn. However Hearts managed to pull a goal back on the 64th through Stipe Vucur.

Aberdeen then ran away with the game with James Wilson and Jon Gallagher adding to the scoring to take the Dons through to the Betfred Cup Semi Finals.

[LEAGUE] Rangers 3 Hearts 0.

Again, you can find a detailed report in our most recent match day live post.

Rangers dominated this game from start to finish with their goals coming from Sheyi Ojo, Jordan Jones and Jermaine Defoe.

Hearts had their changes but were not clinical enough, a bad day at the office!

Our next post will be the first Edinburgh Derby of the season taking place at Tynescatle.
