Heart of Midlothian 2-5 Falkirk

Falkirk substitute CJ Fodrey goes sliding into goalkeeper Beau Reus.

The striker was never getting there and both are left writhing in pain.

The American escapes with only a booking.

Here comes Jota, running on to a lofted pass from Callum McGregor before shunting the ball wide from close in.

An offside flag is up anyway.

The way Jota moves compared to Sebastien Tounekti is just night and day.

Sabri Guendouz goes down after a clip from former Hearts defender Lewis Neilson.

Looks a stonewall spot kick.

A relieved puff of the cheeks from Niko Mantl as the Kilmarnock goalkeeper awkwardly scoops away a low, curling free-kick from Benjamin Nygren.

The Kilmarnock forwards are certainly putting in a defensive shift but Joe Hugill is a bit too enthusiastic as he brings Camilo Duran down to pick up a booking.

Falkirk's turn to make a change.

On-loan Austin striker CJ Fodrey is on for Owen Eames.

After taking a stray arm in the face, Celtic's Kieran Tierney whips a free-kick in for Cameron Carter-Vickers to nod back across goal.

It's just behind all of the Celtic runners though.

Falkirk scorer Jacob Murrell goes in the book for holding back young Hearts midfielder Leart Kabashi, the Swiss Under-19 cap who came from Grasshoppers.

A good response from Kilmarnock as Michael Schjonning-Larsen hammers in a shot that Sam Johnstone has to push away.

Pierre Kaboré goes down just inside the penalty under a challenge from Liam Henderson.

Play on after a swift VAR check - apparently outside the penalty box, so it couldn't get involved.

Falkirk's Finley Barbrook goes in the book as Hearts continue to compete a bit more for the ball in this second period.

Falkirk scorer Liam Henderson does well to block an effort from Claudo Braga at the front post as Hearts continue to press.

Leart Kabashi almost makes an immediate impact.

The midfielder stings the palms of goalkeeper Scott Bain with a shot from long range.

Matthew Gillies has moved back to central defence from midfield to cover for the loss of Malachi Fagan-Walcott.

Malachi Fagan-Walcott is replaced with Leart Kabashi.

The Swiss 18-year-old midfielder is making his Hearts debut.

Yet another Hearts injury.

Centre-half Malachi Fagan-Walcott has pulled up and it looks like a hamstring injury.

Is there a defender on the bench?

On-loan Brentford midfielder Ben Krauhaus replaces Brad Spencer, the Falkirk playmaker having picked up a knock.

Kasper Hogh is in the thick of it again as Colby Donovan cracks a shot just wide.
