Hibernians 2; Gżira 0

Hibernians scored two goals in the first half to see off Gżira United and move five points clear at the top of the Premier League standings.

The Paolites took just nine minutes to forge ahead when Jurgen Degabriele played in Jorginho and the Brazilian slotted the ball past Gżira goalkeeper Jurgen Borg.

Hibs were in complete control and it was no surprise that they doubled their lead on 39 minutes.

Gilmar unleashed a powerful drive that flew into the top corner of the net.

On the restart, Hibs eased the pressure as they looked to administer their advantage.

Gżira had no response and they finished the match with ten men when they had Louis Zome dismissed 12 minutes from time.

Hibs forward Gilmar was voted as the BOV Player of the match.
