After a dissappointing start to their season, Hibernian bounced back in superb form against Livingston today.  Hibernian started well but didn't manage to make the breakthrough until the 40th minute but when the goal came it came in style with David Murphy cutting in from the left flank before curling the ball into the top corner with his weaker right foot.   Only 2 minutes later, Hibs midfielder Dean Shiels doubled their lead with lovely footwork inside the box to be the 'keeper before slotting the ball home.  Hibs started the second half very well and scored their 3rd goal only 8 minutes in when Garry O'Connor drove the ball past Livvy 'keeper Roddy McKenzie.  Hibernians 3rd goal effectively killed the game as the only action after that goal was Livingston's 5th booking which was the 5th booking for a foul on Scott Brown.  An overall great performance from the Hibees which gives them their first win of the season.
