The Greatest Game in History    all seven goals in pictures
back to the 0-7 menu:                                                                                   back to the homepage:
No.1
The rout began in 9 minutes with a long throw from Erich Schaedler on the left. The Hearts defence were busy watching Alan Gordon and the ball bounced to Jimmy O'Rourke who left-footed a shot high into the net
No.2
A superb pass from Alex Edwards gave Alan Gordon the second goal in sixteen minutes. The centre forward slipped as he chested the ball down but regained his balance to poke a right footer past Garland.
No.3
Arthur Duncan made it three with a trundling shot in 26 minutes with a trundling shot after Cropley had nodded a Clunie clearence into the winger's path.
No.4
As a contest it was all over, but Hibs made it an exhibition with their precision football. Anderson stretched for a Duncan centre in thirty five minutes and Alex Cropley volleyed a glorious left-footer past Garland from more than twenty yards.
No.5
Two minutes later a Cropley cross and an Arthur Duncan header gave Hibs no.5, and it also doubled as their fiftieth league goal that season.
No.6
In fifty six minutes a magnificent run by skipper Pat Stanton was worth a goal as he outstripped the entire Hearts defence. But it was Jimmy O'Rourke who slid the ball home to establish himself as No.1 goalscorer in the country.
No.7
The final goal didn't arrive until the seventy fifth minute, Duncan squared the ball to Alan Gordon whose well-timed header went in off the post.
