Summary:Dunfermline 1 Hibernian 1Areplay at Easter Road may not be the enticing prospect it seems for Hibs, who have already lost twice to Dunfermline in the capital this season, but a draw was the logical outcome to a closely-contested Tennent's Scottish Cup fourth round tie in the Kingdom. Hibs, who had seized the advantage with an Ian Murray goal just before the interval, were in no mood for a repeat of the previous Saturday's 3-1 reverse at home, but in the end were grateful for the woodwork when Jason Dair's shot rebounded off the post after Barry Nicholson had levelled the score for the Pars. In truth, chances were few and far between with the sides cancelling each other out.
