Stand-in referee Christian Lautier could not have enjoyed a more comfortable afternoon as Hibernian and St Johnstone played out a dull Easter Road stalemate.
The Maltese, who covered for Scotland's striking officials, had no major decisions to make on a painless afternoon's work that saw him keep his cards in his pocket.
After a nondescript first half, Saints created several chances after the break but failed to properly test goalkeeper Mark Brown.
St Johnstone striker Sam Parkin was a constant threat in the box but was unable to divert any headers on target.
