In the Scottish Women's Premier League (SWPL) Cup final hosted at Fir Park, Rangers defeated Hibernian 4-0 to secure their third consecutive title. Jo Potter, Rangers' head coach, stated that the match was an "added incentive" due to their unfavorable record against league leaders Hibernian.
Rangers dominated the game, with Katie Wilkinson, Camille Lafaix, Kirsty Howat, and Rio Hardy scoring for the holders. The first goal came from Wilkinson, while Lafaix, Reilly (own goal), Howat, and Hardy contributed to the rest of the scoreline.
Hibs had a chance to score first, but Michaela McAlonie was markedly offside, and the raised flag was accurate. Despite Hibs' efforts, they could not recover from the early deficit.
After the game, Hibernian head coach Grant Scott acknowledged their defeat, stating, "It's a sore one to take, a lot of learning and analysis to do on that one." On the other hand, Jo Potter expressed her joy at the victory, saying, "The scoreline and how we played made it so comfortable for us on the sidelines to enjoy and relax and drink it all in."
