A little sighter from St Mirren.

Mikael Mandron swivels from 25 yards and catches the ball sweetly, drilling it low towards the bottom corner. Goalkeeper Craig Gordon is behind the forward's effort.

Better from Celtic as they win a corner and Daizen Maeda, who is playing up front, forces goalkeeper Scott Bain into a good save at his near post.

Dearie me, Falkirk are doing everything except find the net!

From a Celtic corner, it breaks to Kyrell Wilson and the winger's searing pace gets them up the pitch.

The ball is slid to Leon McCann and the left-back drags the ball wide of the far post.

Claudio Braga goes clear through after a mistake from Richard King.

But the Hearts forward spoons it over the bar! He's down clutching his ankle, but there's no foul there.

Huge chance for the 10 men.

Hearts aren't just sitting in, despite the man disadvantage.

Harry Milne just bombs up the left and slides a low cross to the front post, but Claudio Braga gets his angles wrong in the middle. Should have done better.

Now Barney Stewart is through after a brilliant interception by Liam Henderson, but the Falkirk striker shoots at goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel as well.

Falkirk need to take one of these chances.

A reorganisation being made now by Hearts boss Derek McInnes, with Blair Spittal dropping into the area vacated by Baningime in central midfield, with Shankland and Kyzaridis up top in what is now a 4-3-2 line-up.

Roland Idowu has the ball in the back of the net, but the offside flag was up quickly.

Shame for the St Mirren midfielder. It was a fine, curled strike from the left-hand side that gave goalkeeper Craig Gordon no chance.

Oh my word. Kyrell Wilson does everything right here - apart from the finish.

The midfielder leaves Kieran Tierney for dead and takes it away from sprawling goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel but then loses his balance and pokes wide.

What a chance for the Bairns.

A wicked free-kick from Calvin Miller causes havoc in the Celtic six-yard box before Kieran Tierney eventually scrambles it away.

A moment later and Filip Lissah hits the target with a low strike, but goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel saves.

Falkirk have been the better team for the last 10 minutes.

Falkirk are the dominant team at the moment.

They are showing great bravery and taking the game to Celtic.

Just to rub salt in the wound for Hearts fans, Beni Baningime will be suspended for the game against Celtic on Sunday, 25 January.

It is a big test of Hearts resilience to lose a player so early.

Falkirk have grown into this game. Defender Filip Lissah curls in a dangerous ball that just evades a couple of team-mates at the back post.

That was about as obvious a red card as you'll get.

Beni Baningime gets clattered from behind, loses the ball and then flies into the tackle on rival midfielder Roland Idowu.

For the second match in a row, Hearts are down to 10 men.

Hearts 0-0 St Mirren

Beni Baningime goes in studs up on Roland Idowu and he catches him half way up his calf.

It's an immediate yellow from Kevin Clancy, but the Hearts midfielder looks nervous as they await a VAR check.

When Celtic lose the ball, there's a determination to win it back.

That was missing [under previous head coach Wilfried Nancy].

A half-chance as Michael Steinwender picks off a pass and charges forward.

He plays the one-two with Lawrence Shankland, but the midfielder can't pick out a man in maroon with his cross.

Celtic have their first attempt at goal. Daizen Maeda makes a clever run into the box and he is found by Liam Scales.

The striker tries to loft his header over former Celtic goalkeeper Scott Bain, but it lands on the roof of the net.

It was a good attempt.
